The first step to anything is preparation, and sport is no exception! But when it comes to warming up, it can be hard to know what to do.
The key is in the phrase warm-up. You want to get your body moving, and warm up those muscles to help reduce the risk of injury.
To do this, focus on movement. You want to get your blood pumping and elevate your heartrate gradually. Think skipping, speed walking, jogging (it can be on the spot) or anything else that gets you moving.
You can then follow this with more high-intensity exercises, and additional movements that activate specific muscle groups, such as your core, glutes or quads.
Don’t overthink it!
