Flexibility
Flexibility - to get good results from any workout make sure you stretch, flexibility helps you perform deeper, complete repetitions.
It's very important to try and increase your flexibilty when exercing, its helps you to perform exercises better as well as helping to prevent injury.
Staying Hydrated
It is important to stay hydrated while as you exercise if you become dehydrated your blood volumes become reduced. If you carry on exercising and do not take on any fluids you will experience a drop in blood pressure. You will feel faint, dizzy or sometimes can feel sick. This is known as heat exhaustion. You need to make sure you take on water every 10 minutes while working out. Don't wait to take on fluids until you are feeling thirsty. By the time you feel thirsty you are already dehydrated.
In addition to taking on water while working out you need to be drinking 8 glasses of water a day, this should be increased when the weather is hot, make sure you keep a bottle of water with you, especially if you are exposed to the sun for long periods.
