A warm-up using controlled movement through relevant ranges rather than long static holds.
Why Dynamic warm-up matters
It can raise temperature, rehearse upcoming movements and prepare gradually for harder work.
A practical example
Leg swings, bodyweight squats and progressive practice sets before lower-body training.
Common mistake
Turning the warm-up into a tiring workout or using random drills unrelated to the session.
Keep the context in mind.
Training and nutrition terms describe general principles. The right exercise, intensity or food target still depends on your experience, health, goals and schedule.
Personalised coaching
Apply the principle to your own training.
A definition is useful, but your programme still needs to match your experience, schedule, recovery and goals.
