Are You Actually Warming Up Your Team? with Laurren Bastian

You warm up your dog before you run, but are you actually preparing BOTH athletes on your team for what's about to happen?And does a quick walk around really count as a warm-up?This week I'm joined by canine fitness expert Laurren Bastian to talk about what a good agility warm-up is actually supposed to accomplish for your dog and your own body.We're talking about what should happen between standing around and stepping into the ring, how long a warm-up really needs to take, what happens when there's a delay between warming up and running, and why we think about preparation as Move → Connect → Perform.Most importantly, we wanted to make this practical.Laurren and I created the Warm Up Together Field Guide, a simple five-minute warm-up you can use to prepare both you AND your dog for training or competition.Grab your free Warm Up Together Field Guide using the link in the show notes, save it to your phone, and try it before your next run.Five minutes. Two athletes. One warm-up.Everything I talk about on this podcast is built into the Canine Handler Fitness app. Start your free 7-day trial and put these ideas into practice.LINK TO SIGN UP: https://caninehandlerfitness.apprabbit.co/f0/K1N57cOD2Wcaninehandlerfitness.apprabbit.co
