Before you ride full throttle, it’s so important to get your body ready to move. In this short cycling warmup video, you’ll do that by getting oxygen flowing from the top of your head to the tips of your toes, creating space in your spine, and heating your core to really get your blood pumping. Be sure to “favorite” this one so it’s always handy so you can always warm up before you gear up!
Why warm up before you shred? A solid warm-up raises your body temperature, increases your blood flow, decreases the chance of injury, and reduces muscle soreness. Why pick this plyometric warm-up you can do with either a jump rope or a hand towel? Because it’s fun, effective, it’s led by Brian (he is SO fun), and because it features a cameo by Olga! You’ll hop, skip, jump, and be ready to slay, smile, repeat!
Before each workout, you should prepare your body to move. It’ll help minimize injury and it’ll make your workout that much better! This warm-up with Cat & AJ has some of the best dynamic stretches for runners, but is also great for any workout from Spinning to Bootcamp. So warm it up and charge it up right and right now!
