Dynamic stretching helps improve circulation, neuromuscular activation and joint mobility, preparing the body for intense exertion more effectively than static stretching.[2]
Done regularly, dynamic exercises help slow the age-related loss of flexibility and joint mobility, preserving your ability to move freely.[2]

- Do leg and arm swings through the full range of motion
- Add joint rotations — for example, circular movements of the shoulders and hips
- Include high-knee walking and dynamic lunges
Unlike static stretching, which can temporarily reduce strength and doesn't always lower the risk of injury, dynamic movements keep the muscles active and help avoid reduced performance.[2]
Add dynamic stretching to your weekly routine as part of your pre-workout warm-up or as separate short sessions — just 5–10 minutes 2–3 times a week will help maintain and improve your mobility.[1] [3]
Using dynamic movements improves blood flow, neuromuscular activation and joint mobility, preparing the body for exertion.
If you have any health problems or concerns, be sure to consult a doctor before starting new exercises.
