I've been running on and off for about 30 years, and my warmup was only ever a 5 minute walk. I also always complained that the first mile was misery. A few months ago a started doing 10 minutes of gentle squats, side walks, sweeps, leg swings, etc. From the first step my runs feel so much better! I'm going to try that triple extension too!

I just I just saw this on my cell phone and I had to make a comment. my wife and I are both ex- Runners. we both ran the New York City marathon all the way back in 1988 .in those days stretching took us only about a couple of minutes-- quads, calves and few other things and then we were ready to go. I find it interesting that it has become so scientific now. I can remember doing some of our first runs in the 70s in nothing but a pair of sneakers --running shoes were in their infancy then. Unfortunately, my wife has had to stop running. I still do 5ks with my daughter; but at a pace that I don't even want to talk about .LOL. I give you two points for wearing New Balance shoes. They were always my favorites. Good luck.

Ive been a runner since age 14....now Im 64. Ran a few marathons......best time was 2 hours 40 minutes. Learned early on.....do no stretches before a race ! It only hyper- stimulates muscles and causes cramps !!!! Before a run/ race I have never done stretches ! Ive never had a cramp while running ! The only warm up Ive done before a race was run a 100 yards at a slight brisk pace. Rest...and run ! Distance running is not demanding at the early stage in the race. Its easy and comfortable. This is the warm up period !

I take about 15mins for a quick muscle activation, especially if I’ve just been sedentary for a few hours (ie sleeping, sitting at desk, driving). Six quick movements: hip haul to abduction, clams, all-fours drawbacks, crab shuffle, calf-raise with heel pinch at top, leg swings. These open up my hips and switch on some of the “sleeping” muscles (gluteus medius, core, etc) so as not to leave all the work to my more dominant muscles. Works well for me. Will try some of these new ones - been avoid A-Skips and B-Skips for too long. Thanks TRC.

My warm up has been an easier first mile in all my runs. I tend to stretch when i'm done when the muscles are more supple (in my opinion). But, recently i've experienced pain where the calve meets the heel (at the heel). Very uncomfortable but goes after a mile. I recon it's primarily tight calves so i will take your advice and use the foam roller before each run and do some additional (easy) stretches. Before lockdown a quick 40min sports massage session would have sorted this out for me!

Good video, I watched it before, did these exercises and then went for a run. However, there is one more thing to add to this list: Before you run, just make sure you do not feel thursty, so you will not dehydrate.

Time is of the essence on my runs so I o my get time for one or two dynamic stretches before a run. To do all these would add 30 minutes on to my run

I mainly focus on prehab routines as I have a bit of runner knees :*( I do most of your first half vidoes but add on clam shells exercises, glute bridges, bulgarian split squats and single leg raises.
