My Go To warmup stretches 💪🏽

2024/9/25 Edited to

... Read moreWarmup stretches are crucial for preparing your body for a workout, helping to increase blood flow to muscles, improve range of motion, and reduce the risk of injury. Incorporating dynamic stretches, such as arm circles and leg swings, into your warmup routine is beneficial for enhancing mobility. Static stretches, like hamstring and quadriceps stretches, can also be beneficial but should be performed after workouts for best results. A well-structured warmup not only boosts performance but also helps in cooldown phases, ensuring your body transitions smoothly between activity levels. Remember to pay attention to major muscle groups and include stretches targeting your specific athletic needs. Always listen to your body and modify your routine as required for personal comfort and safety.

Before stretching: warm up! I recommend stretching AFTER a workout or doing something physical. Even if you go for a 10 minute walk beforehand, it’s better than doing nothing. Hold each of these stretches for at least 30 seconds. Repeat on the other side and then try your splits on both legs.
