Subject: RE: Warm Ups- What do YOU do? Swim: Just start slowly and build intensity up the first 10 minutes.
Bike: Start slow and easy for 10 minutes, then build up intensity for 10 minutes with a few 20-30 seconds sprints (not full out, also gradually going harder ).
Run:
Long slow run - walk 1-2 minutes, jog 5 minutes, then loosen up joints in shouders hips knees and ankles
Tempo or intervals - walk 1-2 minutes, jog 10 minutes, loosen up joints in shouders hips knees and ankles, jog 1-2 minutes, 3 x 80m sprints starting easy and acceletating to almost full out sprint.
For the running I think a good warm-up helps in injury prevention and gets the body ready for the stress of fater workouts. |
