If you’re not sure what to do or used to the old school warm-up for 5 minutes on the treadmill business then this is for you…
In this video I’m giving you 5 of my favorite dynamic mobility exercises for warming-up that will help prevent injuries to your knees, hips, back and shoulders. These are very simple exercises that most people will be able to “easily” do.
I used to do the 5 minute warm-up on the treadmill stuff for years before I found out about doing this stuff. I wish I knew then what I know now. I could have saved myself weeks of back, knee and shoulder pain.
These exercises should be done after a proper full body foam rolling session, followed by some static stretching and then these dynamic mobility exercises. After doing these exercises you can extend the warm-up by doing some dynamic warm-up exercises.
Warming-up is critical to protecting your body from injuries and it should NEVER EVER be ignored or bypassed because you’re in a hurry. Because trust me once you start skipping the warm-up you’re going to be much more likely to get hurt and have aching joints.
Throw these exercises into your next warm-up routine, these dynamic mobility exercise routine can be done in under 5 minutes and will do wonders for preventing injuries.
