Before any workoutâ??and especially a high intensity one!â??it's important to prepare your body. Depending on the type of workout you're about to do and any muscle imbalances or recovering injuries you have, a proper warm up will vary. In general though, you want to include some light-to-moderate cardio to gradually increase the heart rate and some dynamic (active) stretches for joint mobility.
This 5-minute warm up is made with the at-home workouts I post to my blog in mind. We'll start with two minutes of cardio bodyweight exercises and then move onto active stretches for a functional range of motion.
