Squat Warm Up
A proper warm-up typically includes light aerobic activity, dynamic stretching, and specific movements that mimic the exercises you'll be doing in your main workout. It's important to tailor your warm-up to the type of exercise you plan to engage in. Taking the time to warm up can contribute significantly to a safer and more effective exercise session.
If you are squatting, use the 3 exercises above to help improve your overall workout.
Spiderman Lunge
Extended Rocker
1 1/4 Goblet Squat (light weight)
These 3 exercises help to prep both the hips and the exact squat pattern. When creating a proper warm up you want to make sure you are taking into account all the joints that will be working. Then moving them through full ranges of motion to increase blood flow.
