Pre-run Workout
Here are few pre-run workouts to do when you’re not anxious enough to just get started with the run :) Split each of these over 30seconds or so.
- Knee Hug: relaxes the glutes and hamstring muscles
- Quad Stretch: stretches out the knee, quad and foot
- Leg Pull: works by grabbing the shin and pulling it up
- Leg Swings: the easiest and most fun warm-up drill, opens up the inner thigh
- Reverse Lunge with twist
- Upper body stretches: relaxes shoulder muscles
The idea of doing these exercises is to loosen up your body and prepare yourself better for the run.
Here’s a video showcasing these.
