22.01.2022 Warming Up for Exercise and Sport Warming up is a vital component of everyone’s exercise regime. However, we often find that many of our patients suffer injuries due to improper warmup routines So, here are some helpful tips on how you can complete an effective warmup and avoid sustaining a serious injury ... 1. Dynamic Stretches Only Static or sit and hold stretches are perfect for POST exercise recovery. Prior to completing exercise, you need to complete dynamic (moving stretches). Dynamic stretches allow you to warmup your body and increase the elasticity of your muscle fibres 2. Don’t Just Jog Since the inception of warmups, people have long been told to run a few laps for their warmup. While a slow jog is excellent, completing only this for a warmup is insufficient You need to incorporate some light exercise/sport-specific skill work into your warmup, to ensure that you are activating the necessary muscle fibres prior to your workout and engaging the necessary neural pathways 3. Focus on Key Muscle Groups Similar to the previous point, you need to ensure that at least half your warmup focuses specifically on the activation of key muscle groups required for your training session/workout For example, when warming up for tennis, you would need to include to light-resistance shoulder and trunk rotations, to engage the muscles required for use when hitting a tennis ball 4. 70-80% is Key To ensure that your warmup is reaching an adequate intensity, you need to aim to achieve 70-80% of your heart rate max To get a rough estimate of your max heart rate, you subtract your age from 220. For example, the maximum heart rate for a 30-year-old would be 190 beats per minute (bpm) Want to know more?
