It’s all too easy to get stuck in the same repetitive warm-up, even though different WODs might call for different preparation. Also, our bodies change over time — and thus, our needs.

Recently on Instagram, he shared one routine he likes to go through before he WODs that combines isometric exercises with more dynamic and jumping core work. His explanation for why he does this makes perfect sense, too. Check it out below!
