How to Warm up Before Running: the 5-Minute Routine That Fixes Sore Knees
By Alexander Ross
Running injuries are rarely sudden accidents. They accumulate quietly across thousands of steps, fed by cold connective tissue, asleep stabilizer muscles, and neglected joints. Spending five minutes on dynamic prep rewrites that pattern before you take your first stride.
The protocol requires no extra equipment, gym memberships, or complex setups. Five minutes of deliberate movement turns joint strain into smooth propulsion. Treat your joints with intention before every run, and the road will give you miles of smooth, pain-free running in return.
