Walking Wapping Warm-up: Introduction

Gary doing side kneesWarming up is an important part of training, especially for over-40 folks and those of us in locations that get cold in the winter. But warm-ups tend to be dull and limited in their effectiveness for a full range of movements. (Or mini-workouts that really need warming up to do.)

Enter the Walking Wapping Warm-up. We've been doing this at StrongFast for many years, starting as a preliminary warm-up for our kickboxing or mixed martial arts training classes (hence, "wapping"). But it crosses over well for all kinds of workouts.

The Walking Wapping Warm-up uses eight different techniques. In the video below, you'll get an introduction to the entire warm-up. There will be subsequent videos on each of the techniques separately; as StrongFasters will attest, I can be a little fussy about how they're done. But if you're going to do it, you might as well do it right!

Be seeing you.
