A proper total body warms up for a period of 5 to 10 minutes before any exercising is important to prevent injuries and get the body to prepare for the workout. A total body warm-up can increase your body elasticity by 20% and get your synovial fluid going in the joints.

A good indication to know when you’re adequately warmed up and ready for stretching and exercising is when you notice sweat/moisture appearing on your forehead, back of hands, or under the nose.
