Wait, 'Humpty Dumpty... Had DOMS?!

All the king’s horses and all the kings men couldn’t put Michael Owen back together again. Try as he might, he just couldn’t fight, the hamstring injury reoccurring in the spotlight.

We have all had that gym injury or severe Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS) where our own legs won’t allow us to reach the floor.

This is why you should focus on a thorough warm-up and cool-down.

Notice I said thorough - this doesn’t necessarily mean it has to be long.

To prevent injury your warm-up should be specific to that particular, movement.

Let’s take a look at a Leg Session, as in keeping with this particular piece.

To warm up properly you MUST:

A) 5 minutes (roughly) of a cardio machine of your preference (apart from the rower, this is a LEGS SESSION).

B) a short mobility routine targeting the specific muscle groups of the workout you’re about to undertake.

C) 1-2 warm-up sets of light weight for the exercises you are doing.

And there you have it!

Guys, thank you so much for tuning in. I appreciate you all so much. Until next time . . .
