If I had to pick my least favourite part of any workout, the warm down would win every time. I’ve never enjoyed it - and I know I’m not alone.

After a tough run, most of us are pretty good at convincing ourselves that the session itself is the important part. But the older I’ve gotten, and the more miles my body has clocked- the more I’ve realised that the small things around training are often the things that help us stay consistent. Not the heroic sessions, but the quieter habits that help us feel good enough to show up again tomorrow.

This is the routine I return to most often. It’s straightforward, effective, and easy to fit into real life. It’s not the only way to warm down - just one that works for me and keeps me consistent.

1. 3–5 minutes of easy jogging or walking
2. Gentle calf stretch
3. Quad stretch
4. Hamstring stretch
5. Glute stretch
6. A few deep breaths

As you can see, there’s nothing fancy here. Nothing extreme. Just enough to help your body come back down properly. Recovery isn’t only about ice baths, expensive gadgets, or doing everything perfectly.

Sometimes it’s simply about the small things you’re willing to do consistently, week after week.

Save for after your next run 🏃✅

Shop smaller. Spend louder. 🌈

If your routine usually involves hitting ‘start’ on your watch and diving straight into your run, then this is for you.

For too long, I thought a warm-up was just about breaking a light sweat, maybe a jog to “loosen up.” But a proper warm-up goes beyond that. It’s about preparing your body for the specific demands of running. You want to activate the right muscle groups and establish solid movement patterns so you hit the ground running- literally!

Here are some simple yet effective activation exercises to include:

🏃‍♂️ Hamstring Sweeps
🏃‍♂️ Skip and Jump
🏃‍♂️ Dynamic Kicks
🏃‍♂️ Pogo Hops
🏃‍♂️ Lateral Squats
🏃‍♂️ High Knees
🏃‍♂️ Butt Kicks
🏃‍♂️ Lateral Shuffle

Feel free to mix and match these drills! You don’t have to do all of them every time. Instead, choose a few that resonate with you and fit your needs for that day.
