Foam Roll
For the Incline Walks, I would recommend performing the exercise for 15 minutes right after your strength training.
For the stretches, simply stretch each muscle used during the workout for about 30 seconds each and repeat for 2 times. After stretching, I would recommend foam rolling the entire body until satisfied.
This workout plan is an emphasis on strength training and fat loss. The very little aerobic activity that is involved is the incline walks which are to help burn fat at the end of the workout. The stretching at the end is to prevent injury and the foam rolling is to prevent injury and
increase recovery time.
Also, this workout program is only one week of a 5 week program. Each week, the percentage on the major compound lifts (deadlift, squat, bench) will increase by 5 percent.
