Ready to sweat, sis? 💦 Wake up your body with this quick ACTIVATION before your workout today!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Activation exercises are SO important to help warm up your muscles and get them ready for the big movements in your workout.Â
Activation is one of the most effective ways to prep the muscles ready to be targeted. Like stretches, muscle activation drills increase the flow of blood and nutrients to your muscles to improve flexibility and get you fired up for your workout.
By applying a low level of resistance to your muscles, activations make the neurons that control them more sensitive. So when you get into your strength workout, those muscles automatically fire with greater intensity.
The more switched on your muscles are, the less likely you are to cause injury, and the easier it is to feel the burn in the right places 🔥
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Give this full body activation a go next gym day and get ready to feel that burn baby!
