Warm-up routines

Warm-up routines are preparatory activities before intense physical activity, designed to gradually increase your body temperature, heart rate, and muscle flexibility. They typically involve light exercises like jogging, stretching, or dynamic movements relevant to the upcoming activity. The goal is to improve blood flow to muscles, reduce injury risk, and enhance performance by ensuring your body is ready for more demanding effort. A good warm-up lasts about 5-15 minutes and should be tailored to the specific activity you're about to perform.
