At CrossFit Brighton, we know that a proper warm-up is crucial for preparing your body for intense workouts and preventing injuries. Our expert trainers emphasize the importance of warming up to ensure you’re ready to give your best performance in every session.
Effective Warm-Up Routines:
Dynamic Stretching: Engage in leg swings, arm circles, & torso twists. These movements increase blood flow and flexibility, setting the stage for a productive workout.
Mobility Drills: Incorporate hip circles, ankle rolls, & shoulder shrugs to improve joint range of motion and ensure smoother & safer movements
Light Cardio: Start with 5-10 minutes of light cardio activities like jogging, jumping jacks, or rowing. This elevates your heart rate & warms up your muscles for intense exercise.
Movement-Specific Warm-Ups: Perform exercises that mimic your workout movements. For example, do bodyweight squats & light deadlifts to activate relevant muscle groups if squats & deadlifts are part of your routine.
Foam Rolling: Spend a few minutes foam rolling your major muscle groups, such as quads, hamstrings, & back. Foam rolling helps release muscle tension & improve blood circulation.
A well-structured warm-up routine is essential for maximizing your workout potential and minimizing injury risk. At CrossFit Brighton, we provide comprehensive guidance on effective warm-up techniques tailored to your fitness goals.
