  • 21 Dynamic Stretching Warm Up Exercises
    There is a lot of debate about whether or not you should stretch before your workout. And while I don't recommend static stretches, dynamic stretches are a great way to warm up and get your body ready for an intense workout. Dynamic stretches loosen everything up, improve your mobility and get your blood pumping. Make sure to use stretches that focus on the muscles you plan to work!

    Dynamic Stretching: involves using movement, most often sport specific movements to warm the body up and make it more elastic before an activity. Dynamic stretching is active stretching with movement. An example of dynamic stretching would be a sprinter performing high knee-ups with exaggerated arm movements while running to warm-up before a race. Besides opening up your range of motion from these movements you are also making a proprioceptive connection by patterning these movements. When you are moving, your muscles are always communicating with your central nervous system and sending messages to your brain. Dynamic warm-ups or stretches create better communication throughout your whole body. You’re actually warming up the wiring in your body. I think sport specific dynamic movement is a great idea before any activity. I don’t see any down side as long as you don’t force the range of motion or use too much momentum when stretching.

    Absolutely brilliant stuff. I recently wrote an article on health-by-way-of-fitness for those 40+ where I posit that the most important element of fitness as we age is mobility. (This has been proven to me by way of witnessing up-close-and-personal my parents aging, as well as friends, neighbours and acquaintances.) While there's no question that resistance training and cardio are vital components of a solid fitness regimen, mobility is the make-it-or-break-it pillar...especially in our sitting culture. So well done, you, for this great assortment of mobility-improving moves.

    • @redefiningstrengthOC
      @redefiningstrengthOC  8 років тому +3

      Thanks! And you're so right. It is important to improve our mobility but that means more than stretching. It also means building stability and strength through a full range of motion so that we retain the mobility we worked so hard for!

    Thanks for sharing.
    I'm 60, studying Taekwondo once again, after a multi decade absence. I find that many stretching routines are variations of yours. Basically that we're working the same areas of the body, but getting there with varying approaches. Some very similar, some not so much.
    I believe that I should continue with what my stretching routine as I'm going to end up with a very similar end result. Am I misguided in my thought process?
    Again thanks.

    • @redefiningstrengthOC
      @redefiningstrengthOC  7 років тому

      Hi Sam. I'm not sure exactly what you're asking, but if your doing dynamic stretches focused on restoring full range of motion to your joints, you're on the right track :-) Best of luck!

    • @samiamdj8603
      @samiamdj8603 7 років тому

      Thanks for getting back to me. Especially so quick. First off you're the only person (trainer) that I've contacted on youtube, so please take that as a compliment.
      There are so many varying trains of thought on all of the muscle groups and how to get them to be more limber. Some have put forth that it's all about stretching your muscles to get the Brain to accept more pain in the beginning. The rational is that in the end your Brain will have been retrained and the pain is no longer an issue. Seems odd to me.
      Then there's the million vidoes on how to be able to do the splits in a very short period of time. The only splits stretching routine I practice is Superfoot Bill Wallace's method. His Martial Arts kicks are legendary. He's as limber as anyone I've ever come across.
      Some trainers believe that one can become very limber at my age. So far it seems like a very slow process, even though I take 7 classes a week and I fully stretch at home prior to each class. That's probably way more stretching then most people do.
      But my progress seems slow, perhaps I'm inpatient. It could be because I've done lots of very long distances walks and hikes in my life, which I believe runs counter to being limber as I'm building muscle groups. I have extremely strong legs. When I was in my 20's I did a leg press of 550lbs. I was only 160lbs. The people around me were shocked. I was too. My abs are also very strong.
      Sorry my question was so vague. Some pan stretching routines at Martial Arts schools (Dojang in my case) so I wanted to get your opinion. Do you feel that perhaps I would get more from using your method? Or do I have a long road ahead of me due to my very strong muscle groups in my lower body? Time and effort are not the issue. I just want to make progress.
      You're kind to share your time with me.

      So I think dynamic stretching is part of the puzzle for mobility. I think you need soft tissue work with foam rolling AND activation. Often we can't "stretch" further because there is an imbalance somewhere preventing further mobility. For instance, your hamstrings "feeling" tight could actually be your hips being tight and your core being weak. Muscles respond to instability. So if you feel your progress is slow, you may want to also address whether your core is as stable as it needs to be or if your core or glutes aren't firing currently. And then I don't personally believe in that much static stretching so I'm not sure if you are doing that.
      Also, when we workout and do strength training, if we don't strengthen through a full range, we only tighten everything back up. So if you are lifting weights at all, definitely consider including exercises that will keep the range of motion you are working so hard for with stretching.
      But honestly if you are spending that much time stretching, you may want to see what is causing everything to tighten back up instead of simply stretching over and over again.
      And I"m not sure what you mean by my method? Are you saying static vs. dynamic stretching? Sorry for the confusion!

      Thanks! You're very kind with sharing your time and expertise.
      You made a good point that got me thinking. At certain times in my life I was very much into pull ups. My lats were quite noticeable. My forearms as well.
      When I first started having back pain I (no longer have back pain due to Taekwondo) I had an X-Ray and my Doctor told me that I had built up some muscle groups in my back and not others. So I believe you nailed it.
      So I guess it will take that much more work and time to balance my core. I don't do pull ups/push ups anymore so hopefully in time those muscle groups will start to align with the muscle groups that I'm working on in Taekwondo. At least I hope so.
      Take care

      Hi Sam. I am 58, and like you, used to do Tae Kwon do when I was younger. I was never a flexible person, so that was my biggest challenge. Also like you, at 55 I got back into martial arts, Tai Chi. I was wondering if I would see any improvement, trying to get flexible at my age. But I am definitely making progress, but it has been slow. I attend classes 5 days a week. Some tips for you. Stretch out a bit in the mornings also. That is the tightest time of the day. Also, stretch at the end of your workouts, not just the beginning. And finally, do a little stretching before you go to bed. I have a thought process. I tell myself 5 minutes stretching is better than none. 10 minutes is better than 5, and so on. Of all these suggestions, stretching in the morning is the most important. Even if it is for just 5 minutes. Try it, you will see a difference.

    I started my inner thigh workout a couple of days ago to slim them down. Didn't realize I had to do stretching first to avoid gaining muscles till someone pointed it out. Thanks for this video!

      Yeah, that's not how that works. Stretching stops you from hurting yourself. Spot reduction is not a thing. Do some googling and find real sources.

    Great Cori! I used dynamic stretch for skating warm up for years with an off ice class. This is motivating me to get back to doing it. Love these stretches!

    • @redefiningstrengthOC
      @redefiningstrengthOC  5 років тому

      Aw yay! It's such a great way to get everything mobilized and ready to work BEFORE you do any training so that you don't waste any time and the correct muscles are ready to work efficiently!

    I'm currently rehabilitating my back (thoracic spine pain). Do you have any specific stretches I should try out? I will of course, do the ones shown in this video. Thanks in advance.

      Hey. I just tried most of those out and they were most helpful. My thoracic spine felt great and didn't bother me one bit. Cheers, Cori.
