Trainer Jane and new Personal Trainer Casey know that while your workout is important, warming up is mandatory, too. Not sure how to warm up correctly? Let us be your guides! Walk through video and pictures are below.
Static Lunge (#2): Shoulders back, chest out, hands STRAIGHT up, 90 degree angle to both knees, lunge up & down statically. 10 reps per leg.
Walk-out to push-up (#3), then rotate & stretch. Bend over putting hands on ground (keep heels on ground as long as possible to get a great stretch!), walk out to push-up position, do a push-up, then rotate one arm as far back as possible. Switch arms, return to push-up position, and walk it back up. That is 1 rep; do 7-10!
Hip Stretch (#6): Push up position, bring knee to center of chest, put knee down, keeping your back FLAT & your hips straight, exhale as you push into the stretch. Hold 30 seconds per leg.
Foam Roller (#7): Roll out hamstrings (shown in picture), quads, glutes, back, etc. Roll each area about 15-20 rolls. Do in between sets, at the beginning or the end of a workout!
