To stay safe and get the most out of your workout you must always include a pre-workout warm-up before you begin and then finish with a cool down to get your body back into gear.

Whether your workout plan is a bodyweight routine in the park or a 5K warming up should be the first thing on the to-do list (after that pre-workout snack). But what's the ideal way to warm up? Experts agree a warm-up should heat and loosen the body and prepare the mind for action.

you need to warm up before pretty much every single workout. but how often do you actually do it? (And no walking on the treadmill for five minutes doesn't count.) It's important to do a total-body warm up to get blood flowing to your muscles before you go hard as it helps decrease the risk of overuse injuries and addresses underlying muscle imbalances while enhancing the quality of your movements

Stretching correctly will increase your flexibility and reduce the risk of injuries caused by lesions of the connective tissues. it will also correct and improve your posture.
