If you run, you need this 5 minute warm up before every run. This quick pre run warm up is designed to activate your glutes, open your hips, mobilize your ankles, and wake up your core so you can run stronger, faster, and with less risk of injury. Whether you’re training for a marathon, running 5Ks, sprinting, or just getting back into it, this dynamic warm up will prepare your body properly in just five minutes.
In this video we focus on: • Hip mobility for runners • Glute activation • Ankle mobility and calf prep • Dynamic hamstring warm up • Core engagement for better running form
Skipping your warm up is one of the biggest mistakes runners make. Tight hips, stiff ankles, and inactive glutes can lead to knee pain, IT band issues, shin splints, and lower back discomfort. This short routine helps prevent injury and improves running performance. Do this before treadmill runs, outdoor runs, track workouts, long distance training, or sprint sessions. Consistency is what makes the difference. Keep this as part of your pre run routine and your body will thank you.
