I love that this WU is super quick and can also be done while staying in one place (perfect for when your Garmin is taking forever to lock onto the GPS lol)
I only started "running" about 9 weeks ago with the C25K app (which I love), but even more I have appreciated learning warmups and techniques from this channel to help me not give up and to get better! I can go for 28 minutes at this point, very slowly, but I'm learning how to love it and not hate it! 🥰 Thank you!
Did these today and noticed that my hip flexors did not act up at all during or after my run. Usually they’re very tight, I definitely felt them working during these warmups .
Thanks Morgan, found this really helpful. Part of my dynamic warmup already includes the leg swings, but I'm always on the lookout for other warmups to mix things up and keep myself fired up with my running. Cheers Enzo.
I hope doing this would prevent me from leg injuries. I've had one too many from running, shin splints, quad tendonitis, ankle injury I get them from running. I'm going to make this one a habit so I never get those leg injuries again. These look great and you are doing an amazing job wow
I've suffered with shin splints my entire life, I started doing static stretching every morning and not its completely gone. I use these 2 videos to follow along too, try it out! 1. non running days ruclips.net/video/L_xrDAtykMI/видео.html 2. on running days ruclips.net/video/d4ZJXhCmORA/видео.html
I do some of these stretches. They have helped with primarily hip pain. I do 2 legswings after longer runs too - can u say that that they also stretch u hips, buttocks etc?
Thanks. Didn't realise the leg swings should be pushing backwards! If I wanted to add in groin & hip flexor stretches, should I do them before these drills?
So I have a question! I’ve been running now for one month and my breathing is coming along great . However after about a third of a mile my calves start to hurt bad. So I bought new sneakers (Hoka’s) and today my ankles hurt even worse even after stretching beforehand. It’s really aggravating. Any advice?
Hey Mike, I know how you feel. When I got back into running after 30 years off I thought I was doing all the right things, stretching, running at my local oval (soft grass, less impact initially), but still i ended up with right ankle tendonitis, one of many injuries since running for the last year and a half, but It does get better and you do get stronger. Suggestion for the sore calves and ankles, take it slow and easy, try run / walks, shorter distances, etc, and search youtube for 'post run static stretches', these are just as important as pre run dynamic stretches. Cheers Enzo.
Hsppened to me too. Agree with the guys on this one. U can do two stretches for it, one where u put u feet over a foam roller, knees on mat or floor and bend backwards - this stretch is used aöot by swimmers to get better stretch on ankle and thereby feet angle and hence better flutter kicks. The other just bend knee when doing regular calf stretches - adjust position until u feel pressure on ankle. But, it is a, as for me, a cpnsequence of doing too much, too soon. Takes time to build leg muscle, tendon strength etc. A few years ago i couldnt even walk, i was running really steep trails, where especiaöly downhill running gets u hellstrinking and puts u bodyweight times 2.5 on u tendons going fronm toes to knees. This injury is common for trail/mountain runners , sage canaday has a video on it - shows how to tape for ankle support. Icing and inflammatory gel helps but u should take time of running. Check u form. Dont heelstrike on uneven terrain. Dont run downhill. Running trail is great to build balance and strength, but walk uphill and the worst downhill - try to get a good footstrike, increase u cadence. I still do trailrunning/hiking with carbon poles (for running), which force u into a better position with upper body, opend u chest and is great fun too. Doing 1000 feet of climbing/per week will get u glutes, hamstrings and calves strong. I swear it...
I have a different dynamic routine. Watching these I could not help but think, “Why not just jog half a mile before running?” Seems like it would do the same thing.
Christina Cascadilla slow running isn’t a warmup for faster running. you don’t get the same range of motion, and these drills put you in proper run form to help prevent injuries as well!
Idk dude I get super impatient when I’m getting ready to go. Maybe do a video on being able to contain yourself and do the warm up instead of just zapping into my route
Leg swings, heel pulls, wall high knees and A skips 👌
Thanks buddy
you got it!
I'm literally gonna do it right now since I'm just about to leave the house for a great run!
perfect timing!!
I love that this WU is super quick and can also be done while staying in one place (perfect for when your Garmin is taking forever to lock onto the GPS lol)
Really good you demonstrated doing these in place or a small area. At these times , many of us warming up in our living room or driveway. Thanks!

You should download our app! We have an awesome beginner and 5k program in there that incorporates all of these exercises in! See link in description.
The Run Experience Oh ok! I will do that!😊
This is probably my most important YT running video I watch before runs
Great channel for this newbie. Lots of helpful tips and training. The coaches are great motivators!
Love this warm up. Have been doing it religiously before every run for what feels like an age. It's an awesome primer for short, or long runs.
Did these today and noticed that my hip flexors did not act up at all during or after my run. Usually they’re very tight, I definitely felt them working during these warmups .
I gotta try before my next run, my glutes and thighs hurt after a day of heavy run...
Thank you…every little helps
Nice, Morgan. Many thanks!
This is so helpful! Thank you!
Feeling strengthened and well equipped for a run now! Thanks, coach Morgan.
Thank you for sharing ❤️
Very helpful and important for anyone to do drills in their training
Thanks for the tips!
Thank You so Much for sharing that Dynamic Warm Up...
Did my 1st run in over a decade today and definitely be using this WP routine. And of course subbed many thank you for this channel
paul bryden we LOVE to hear this!
I've always watch your blog coach.. keep on going.. im also a runner.😍👍
Thanks for tip coach morgan..🤗
Great video and info. Some drills I haven’t tried yet. Thanks coach!!!
no problem! 😊
Very well explained and illustrated! ..thank you for your motivation that you give to me to run the long run.
Thanks Morgan, found this really helpful. Part of my dynamic warmup already includes the leg swings, but I'm always on the lookout for other warmups to mix things up and keep myself fired up with my running. Cheers Enzo.
I love you coach Morgan 😘
Great video. You explain those drills very well.
This is fantastic, thank you!
I'll obey your command coach morgan, anything u say😊😘
Thank you Coach, will apply tomorrow morning! 😎💪🏼

True!!! I was getting Achilles soreness. Found out just needing better insoles. Check your shoes for comfort on impact.
great for getting prepared for a timed mile,
thanks
Good advice. My runs always feel better when I do dynamic drills first.
I will try these on sunday, thanks coach! Thx team!
Just in time, I was just about to go for a run! Nice!
perfect!
Thank you very much for uploading this warm up drills
Brilliant!
Thank you! You mentioned 20 reps each leg for leg swings, but for the other 3 warm-ups how reps or minutes we suppose to do them?
I figured 20 as well since she didn't say otherwise.
Great information Coach M. Thks. Are you guys no longer doing the weekly nutritional video? I haven’t seen one in quite a while.
Thanks a lot 🙂
Great routine. Only thing I would add is some calf raises and heel walks.
Good call!
Great video thabks
I do some of these stretches. They have helped with primarily hip pain. I do 2 legswings after longer runs too - can u say that that they also stretch u hips, buttocks etc?
Thanks so much
That is an amazing trail! Does ANYBODY know where that is??
Great info....
Thanks. Didn't realise the leg swings should be pushing backwards!
If I wanted to add in groin & hip flexor stretches, should I do them before these drills?
Sam Spade is day after, especially if it’s a static stretch. also the groin can be overstretched easier so i’d warmup before!
I'd be done exercising after these drills
This was great. But hey, what's that super long log balance beam thing along the trail in the video?
Leif Gruenwoldt the logs are a border for the “lovers lane” trail here in san francisco! pretty huh 😃
Thanq
Making leg swings look natural.
Any suggestions for older person like me at 68yrs?
I will follow all your instructions because you are so beautiful.💐
Shouldn't the wall drill be dorsiflexed?
How many of each exercise/each side is recommended to warm up?
you can do these for a minute, add more time if you’re tight. go through once or twice!
I always did leg swings and then walk 3 min before I start running. If I do all these drills instead can I just break out in to a fun right away?
Sure.
My god, if I did all this before my runs I'd be too knackered to run.
So I have a question! I’ve been running now for one month and my breathing is coming along great . However after about a third of a mile my calves start to hurt bad. So I bought new sneakers (Hoka’s) and today my ankles hurt even worse even after stretching beforehand. It’s really aggravating. Any advice?

The Run Experience, well I’ll try them, but I think I’ve got a routine that works better.
I feel like every runner does these exercises
But for the love of god why those shorts are so short.
Boa tarde 🏃♂️👣
Which place is this BTW?
this was shot by lovers lane in the persidio in San Francisco
Very good mam,i am from india
Great warm ups, just got sick from you going round and round with the camera.
Idk dude I get super impatient when I’m getting ready to go. Maybe do a video on being able to contain yourself and do the warm up instead of just zapping into my route
😍
Interesting. I normally walk for a mile or so until I pick up speed and finally I'm running.
great -0-
Thaaaaaaaaaaanx
❤❤❤❤❤💕💕💕
Ah, was that a medicine cupping mark on the right leg?
I was thinking it was a scar. I never thought about a cupping mark
that would be coach morgan’s ☀️ tattoo
girl you have some tight hip flexors
I got tired with just the warm up.
Have you ever tried to run in a barefoot shoes ?
I knocked 4 whole minutes (well, 3 minutes 40 secs) off my best 10k! Holly crap!
😐
Those a skips don't look right
U r beautiful
Why cover the tattoos? Be proud of it... this is not the 70s!😊
