Spring is just around the corner, and with it comes the return of runners hitting the pavement. Whether you're gearing up for a marathon, training for track season, or simply enjoying a jog around the neighborhood, one thing remains essential—warming up.
Too often, runners skip this crucial step, but a proper warm-up can significantly reduce the risk of common injuries like shin splints, hamstring strains, and muscle tightness. The key? Dynamic stretching. Unlike static stretching, which can reduce muscle activation, dynamic warm-ups prepare your muscles for movement, improving flexibility, stability, and overall performance.
This month, we’re focusing on keeping runners strong, injury-free, and at their best. Today’s video dives into simple but effective warm-up movements to get your body primed for success. Watch now and take the first step toward safer, stronger running!
