The "Warm-up" benefit

Warming up before your workout gets your blood flowing, activates muscles and increases brain readiness.

The "Warm-up" can take anywhere from 3 minutes - 15 minutes.

Samples of a warm-up routine:

  1. Light cardio for 3-7 mins (jogging, biking, swimming, etc...)
  2. Dynamic Stretching 3-5 mins
  3. Light resistance training 5 mins
  4. Foam roller - 3 mins
