WHY ISWARMING UP BEFORE EXERCISE SO IMPORTANT?

Whether you’re a weekend warrior or dedicated athlete, warming up before participating in any form of physical activity is extremely important. We always hear about the crucial aspect of proper warm-ups, but why exactly are they so crucial? Well, the truth is that while it may not seem like it at the time, warming up the body before engaging in exercise of any sort can pose several benefits. If you areafitnessenthusiastwho is looking toenhance theirwarm-up routine,contact Core Solutions Physiotherapy & Wellness today. The importance of proper warm-ups. Stretching and proper warm-ups before exercise are arguably most important in helping your body avoid injury. As an athlete, we understand that one of your primary goals is staying healthy so you can participate in your sport or exercise of choice. Our physiotherapists at Core Solutions Physiotherapy & Wellness can teach you warm up routines that utilize light weights, resistance bands, or targeted stretches to get your body ready for physical activity. Some light cardio can also be beneficial in your warm-up routine, as the goal is to have your muscles warm and loosened up. When this happens, your muscle cells become oxygenated and ready to work. A physiotherapist can guide and assist you in perfecting your warm-up routine, similar to a personal trainer. Maintaining proper form during your warm-ups is just as important as maintaining it during your main exercise, and is one of the mainkeys toavoiding injury.Yourphysiotherapistwillanalyzeyour form tomake sure you’re doing everything correctly in order to maximize results during your workout and help you get the most out of it. Warming up can make all the difference for those who are aging and active. As we age, our bodies simply aren’t as limber as they used to be – putting us at risk for exercise-related injuries. Proper warm-ups are a great resource for those who still want to remain active but may be prone to injuries or at a higher risk of developing injuries. A physiotherapist can help you figure out where your problem areas are, so you can perform the correct warm-up routine for your needs. A routine that consists

ofacombinationofexercises,stretches,andpain-relieving techniques that target areas where injuries are likely to occur is one of the best ways to avoid injury in the aging and active adult. Additionally, your physiotherapist can also help you target poor techniques and correct them.They will focus more on the areas of your body that are repeatedly stressedandoverusedbyyoursportorexercise, thusdeterminingyour likelihood of injury and suggesting the best warm-up techniques for keeping you safe during physical activity. Additional benefits of warming up before exercise. While injury prevention is the main benefit, there are many ways that warming up helps your body. Some additional benefits include: • Reducing muscle tension. When your body isn’t warmed up, it becomes tense and tight. Tense and tight muscles have restricted blood flow and may not activate as effectively. Stretching and light exercises before a workout helps toalleviate this tensionandhelpmusclesexpandandcontractmoreefficiently. • Increasing rangeofmotion in your joints. Joints thatmovebetter,workbetter! Warming up helps your joints move fluidly and throughout their full range of motion.This improves movement efficiency and function, which means better performance. • Improvingcirculation. Inaddition to improvingmusclemechanics, theenhanced circulation that warm-ups bring can also accelerate the recovery of painful areas, reduce post-workout soreness, and increase your energy levels. • Helping with stress relief. There’s a strong link between physical tension and mental tension. By alleviating physical tension with a consistent warm-up routine, you can ease psychological stress, too. Plus, evidence shows that stretching and/or participating in light exercises before a workout improves your “psychological readiness” and helps you get your head in the game. Ready to get started? Contact us today! All in all, adopting a proper warm- up routine before participating in strenuous physical activity is a small-time investment for a long-term benefit. If you have any questions about how to warm up properly and how we can help, contact Core Solutions Physiotherapy & Wellness today.
