Leg Swing Warm Up Leg Swing: Set up - Stand on one leg using a wall for support if needed. We perform a warm up prior to the main session to ensure your body (mind, muscles, joints, connective tissue) is safely prepared for the activity ahead. Action - Swing your non- weight bearing leg in front of your body and behind. • Repeat on opposite side. Should take around 10 mins. 1. Initial Pulse Raise. 3-4 mins on any cardio kit/ jogging. 50-60% effort levels. 2. Dynamic stretching. Perform 3-5 stretches focusing on the main body parts that are going to be worked in the session. Ensure you make the stretches progressive and dynamic (continuously moving) and are not held statically for too long. 3. Second Pulse Raise. 2-3 mins on another piece of cardio equipment/running. Up to 70-80% effort levels. Calf Stretch Set up - Stand facing the wall in a staggered stance (one leg forward, one leg back) and place your hands on the wall in front. Keep your back leg straight with your heel in contact with the floor Action - Push your hips and chest forward until you feel tension down the back of the rear leg. • Repeat on the opposite side. h c t e r t S i l a C
