Walk, jog or run at a limited speed.

Use cardio equipment such as rowing machines and bicycles.

Start at a slow pace and then increase the intensity of the warm ups, until your heart rate increases and body temperature rises. You should know your current fitness levels so that you can do warm ups that don’t leave you exhausted. After all, you must retain enough energy to do the actual exercises afterwards!

Stretching is a vital component of warming up because it helps to make the muscles flexible.

Stretching must involve,

Movement of legs so as to prevent blood from pooling into them

Flexing of the major muscle groups (mentioned above) for at least 8 seconds

Flexing of warmed up muscles only

A fitness trainer might be the right person to decide how you should warm up. Depending on your age, general health and fitness goals, he or she can tell you what should comprise your warm up sessions and how long should they last. Just remember that the combination of a fitness trainer and warm ups before exercise can be really helpful for achieving all your fitness goals!
