Silly title aside what do you do to warm up and if you do any stretching for mobility after a run what are they?
I confess to being extremely lazy. My idea of a warm up is just running a bit easier than normal and the only stretch I do is foam roll my calves and stretch out the old hams on a wall.
Every time I look up articles you get insane fitness blogs regurgitating the same 3 page “easy” routine that you absolutely must do all of or you will definitely die.
So what do actual other human beings do? Come, share your wisdom or commiserate in haphazardness.
A couple things that have really helped me lately are prone ups/Cobra (like a push up but you stay in contact with the floor from the waist down) and another stretch where you lay flat on your back and throw one leg over. Both were recommended by the PT to help stretch my lower back and they, along with some strengthening exercises, have made a big difference for me in keeping my lower back from aching toward the end of runs.
