Hey guys! This is a quick five-minute warm-up routine, that you can do before your daily workout.
Warm-ups are really important to reduce chances of injuries,
so make sure you do them before your workouts.
We've got 13 exercises, 20 to 30 seconds on.
Get on your mat, we're kicking off with cat-cow.
Start on all fours, and inhale as you drop your belly towards the mat,
and lift your chin and gaze up towards the ceiling.
Then exhale and draw your belly to your spine, and round your back.
Make sure you're not straining your neck while you're doing it.
Now, get into a high plank position,
then rotate to a side plank, then back to middle, then to the other side.
Take it nice and slow as you warm up your limbs. Don't rush it.
Now get upright, and we're going to do some toe touches,
by stepping side-to-side while swinging your arms slowly.
This is going to bring our heart rate up a little, and warm up our limbs.
Keeping the same motion, we are doing a curtsy with a slight lunge on your legs.
While keeping your arms moving.
Nice work, guys!
Now we are going into a deeper lunge, while you rotate your torso from side-to-side.
This is also going to warm up our upper body.
Alright, now, place your feet shoulder width apart,
and we're going into a squat to warm up our legs.
Try to reach the floor with your hands if you want a deeper stretch.
But do not push it too hard, if you're not too flexible yet.
Not long to go, and we'll be done.
Spread your feet further apart, and we're doing some lateral lunges here.
Working on the inner thighs as well.
Short rest here to get you into position.
We are now going deeper into a low lunge.
Raise your hands towards the ceiling, then back, and then repeat.
Now, let's swap to the other side.
Great work guys! Short five seconds rest here, and we are going into a low lunge stretch.
We're bending and straightening the front leg, to warm up our hamstrings.
We are almost done.
And now let's swap to the other side.
We are almost done, guys!
Stand upright, and we're doing some overhead reaches.
Twist your torso with your back leg bent,
and your hands reaching over your head, and then on to the other side.
And the last exercise here is jumping jacks.
We are raising the intensity here a little, to get you ready for your next workout.
And that's the warm-up guys!
Remember to not skip your daily warm-ups and cooldowns.
