4. Warm-up: This is a period of lighter exercise preceding the conditioning phase and should last for 5 to 10 minutes for most healthy adults. Conditioning phase: The primary component of a workout. This should be aligned with client goals and should be based on frequency, duration, intensity, and modality. Cool-down: This phase occurs after the primary workout has concluded. It should last 5 to 10 minutes and has the goal of helping the body return to a pre- exercise state. An active cool-down can help remove metabolic waste as well.
