Ultimate warm-up

This three-part dynamic warm-up from trainer Nick Tumminello gets your heart rate up and your muscles prepped. Here’s how it works:

Head Strong

Push your strength and endurance to insane new levels - and make your brain do all the work.

Lap it up

Four moves for building a no-joke stroke

Yoga for cycling

Practising yoga for 10 minutes after your ride will increase overall circulation to help you recover faster.

Yoga for running

To ease your taut muscles, perform these moves after every run. Each one strengthens your entire body while giving key areas of your lower body a much-needed stretch. Do 1 rep on each side.

Yoga for swimming

Experts say that regular yoga sessions (at least four a week) can increase your oxygen intake by 200 to 300 per cent. That means less fatigue and cramping, because extra oxygen brings more power to every stroke.
