Oh wow how wrong I was. I've been stretching slowly "targeting" the muscles I'm going to work out then jump on the stair master to get my heart rate up before work out. Thank you so much. I will do more research on this kind of stretching and will try it as well. Thank you !!!!
I’m a novice when it comes to stretching and just did these after having worked out the past two nights and BOY does this make a difference. I feel ready to go and I’m not sore at all. Idk why i was avoiding doing these basic warm ups all this time.
dude, not gonna lie, the anime Dumbbell Nan Kilo Moteru? brought me here because I couldn't believe that I've been lied to about static stretching by my school PE teacher and coaches all these years... thank man
A fellow gym enthusiast informed me yesterday about not doing so much cardio before a workout. I typically do 40 minutes. He said I would end up being tired and not be able to lift properly. I told him I knew that cardio does nothing to help weight loss, which is partly why I'm there, I just need something for my heart. He probably has a point, that is why I am here. Good video.
Thanks. Cardio can help with weight loss however, a lot of people get trapped into the mindset that hours of cardio are what will ultimately have the greatest impact on their weight loss.
I used to do 5-10 minutes of cardio machines like the treadmill and bike prior to training. However now since I have allocated days of cardio, I now only do a range of dynamic and a couple of static pre warms ups prior to resistance training and no cardio machines . Would you recommend I include back my 5-10min cardio warms up or are dynamic warm ups enough? :)
They can be enough if you do enough. 2-3 minutes of dynamic movement isn't enough. Most beginners won't know a good dynamic routine to follow and that's why it's recommended to do both.
Recently made the decision to start actively working out to try to not only get in shape but help with my mental health, and this was the exact video I was looking for. These were great stretches thanks!
That's a little different style of warming-up where it can be dependant on the type of event, surface, level of skill and so on. However do a search on our UA-cam page looking for 'dynamic stretching' and you'll see some dynamic stretches that you'll find beneficial.
not me being a 16 year old kid who does cosplay watching a fitness video all jokes aside, thanks for this video lol. it helps feel much better before i do exercises. I dont do the gym or try to get muscles. its more of a body shape thing, lol.
Hey wanted to ask, today while doing bench i got pain in one of my arms, could it be from lack of stretching Edit: Pain existed during first few workouts, now everything is normal

I just started going to the gym and wanted to know that are there any important streches that I should do for my core muscles? Are situps and back extensions without weights enough to stretch them? Or are the stretches shown in the video enough to cover core muscles as well?
I’m so interested. But so scared to download anything because I’ve paid for downloads gravely in the past. Is this safe? Anyone downloaded it? Of had the PDF sent to them? I really wanna know what he’s talking about! Thanks💚🙏🏻
I understand your concerns Amanda. Our downloads are safe and if for any reason the download does not come through or you have any issues, we do have customer service agents to help with that
@@Criticalbench Thank you very much for replying. So that mean i can proceed with that right. Can I know if there is any need to stretch before making passive hang?Thank you very much for your response.
Hey idk if u will answer but I’m a big girl I have belly fat and stuff but I’m not obese I think any way I’ve been working out recently and all of a sudden my knees started hurting do u happen to know why and how I can fix it?
Hi 😊 ... there can be multiple reasons for why your knees are bothering you. We aren't doctors so we really cannot answer your question. We recommend seeing your doctor to help you figure out what is the cause of your pain.
Can I do the dynamic stretches at home and the treadmill when I get there or should I do it all there? Also if there where in the gym is a good spot to stretch
Hey man, when I was doing the crisscrosses I kept hearing a pop in my right shoulder. I’m aware it’s not good that’s happening, do I just keep stretching properly or should I get it checked?
Either you need to stretch, activate the opposing muscle groups, or change the position of your hands. If you still feel it then have a dr check it out. Does it cause you pain?

10 minute on cardio is good like you said before working out

Hey wanted to ask, today while doing bench i got pain in one of my arms, could it be from lack of stretching
Edit: Pain existed during first few workouts, now everything is normal
It could be a lot of things. We are not doctors and cannot diagnose. If the pain persists you need to see your doctor.
try to put your shoulders back before you bench , it release stress on your arms and help your chest
Thank you 💯
You're welcome!
Good stretches but slow them down wouldn’t want you to tear something
Thank you for your feedback 👍

I'm new looking and found this right before gym. Any first day info ?
HAVE FUN! Enjoy your workout, lift smart, be sure to warm up and cool down. And please check out our channel for 1000's of workout videos that can help you plan your training sessions.
Thanks for this video, would you recommend or could you foam roll after these dynamic stretches ?
I just started going to the gym and wanted to know that are there any important streches that I should do for my core muscles?
Are situps and back extensions without weights enough to stretch them? Or are the stretches shown in the video enough to cover core muscles as well?
My left hand started to feel pain along with left arm when I did leg swings did I do something wrong
Could be form? But we really can't say without seeing you perform the exercise.
I’m so interested. But so scared to download anything because I’ve paid for downloads gravely in the past. Is this safe? Anyone downloaded it? Of had the PDF sent to them? I really wanna know what he’s talking about! Thanks💚🙏🏻

Criticalbench ty!
How much minutes of warmup before workout approx
10 minutes
does this work for post workout stretching as well?
Im Currently #InThatMode🔋
Can u do these before and after a workout. Thank you
Dynamic stretches are BEST before your workout and static stretches after. Do these before your workout.
Can I know if I can replace the treadmill aerobic exercise with rope skipping. Is it the same or I must run first?
Skipping is an excellent cardio exercise
@@Criticalbench Thank you very much for replying. So that mean i can proceed with that right. Can I know if there is any need to stretch before making passive hang?Thank you very much for your response.

Hi im new to working out but id appreciate if you could reply does this as a warm up
Hey idk if u will answer but I’m a big girl I have belly fat and stuff but I’m not obese I think any way I’ve been working out recently and all of a sudden my knees started hurting do u happen to know why and how I can fix it?

Can I do the dynamic stretches at home and the treadmill when I get there or should I do it all there? Also if there where in the gym is a good spot to stretch
Yes, you can separately
Do these also work for something like riding a bike, running, walking, and etc?
Of course. These are just to loosen the body up. Always better to do any physical activity after a stretch.
can i do jumping jacks as a stretching workout before the real workout?
Not a bad warm up 👍
@@Criticalbench ok thanks sir
I'm trying to lose some weight during at home exercises nothing heavy just like cardio will this help before I do it?
This will help prepare you for a workout. Not necessarily lose weight. Look up our videos on weight loss for more tips.
@@Criticalbench ok thx
Hey man, when I was doing the crisscrosses I kept hearing a pop in my right shoulder. I’m aware it’s not good that’s happening, do I just keep stretching properly or should I get it checked?
Either you need to stretch, activate the opposing muscle groups, or change the position of your hands. If you still feel it then have a dr check it out. Does it cause you pain?
Are we suppose to do them this fast?
Work at your own speed
What do you mean stretching doesn’t increase flexibility that’s bs because the stretches I do for taekwondo made me way more flexible
