Dynamic stretches are slow, controlled movements performed in a series that prepare muscles, tendons and ligaments for more intense movements and exercise.
As we age, our cartilage, ligaments, tendons and other soft tissues need to be filled with synovial fluid, water or blood to increase their viscosity and stiffness, which improves motion and strength.
Here is my daily 5 minute warm up:
Cat-Cow
Child's Pose to Cobra
World's Greatest Stretch
Glut Bridges
The Founder to Sumo Squat
Cossak Squats
Band Pass through
You can search for, and find, many different variations of a daily routine. Make the 5 minute commitment and have fun as you avoid injury!
