The dynamic warm-up includes things like running in place, hi knee lifts for 20 seconds, jumping jacks, shoulder rolls, arm spins, trunk bends...stuff like that. I don't think there is any magic routine, just pull a dozen movements together that work for you, develop a routine.


My experience, you'll get on the bike feeling loose, light and with blood flowing. But, I am often too lazy or perhaps embarassed to follow through routinely, then a mile down the road I'm cursing myself for not warming up properly..or re-warming I should say.
