DYNAMIC WARM-UP Prior To Workout

The days of long holds on stretches before exercise is largely over. Research continually demonstrates that static stretching isn't as beneficial prior to working out as dynamic stretching. Before starting your lifting or cardio session, go through some body weight movements like squats, lunges, push-ups, side lunges, and jumping jacks. Perform three sets of each movement for 20-30 reps to warm up your entire body. This type of warm-up should leave you in a light sweat ready to tackle your workout.
