Hi and welcome back to the Mohsin Salya blog.
It probably goes without saying, but if you want to perform to the best of your ability when running, it’s vital that your warm up routine is right.
When you start running cold, your body is going to take time to get into its optimum running mode. You’ll be inflexible and stiff, and your body will inhibit your natural stride. By warming up correctly, you’ll start your run without limitations. There are not only physical benefits to warming up, but also psychological – you’ll know in your mind that you’re ready for that run.
Warming up should never take more than five minutes, so it isn’t too much effort and it isn’t too time consuming. Here I’ve put together four warm up techniques to get you ready for your run.
Until next time,
Mohsin Salya
