Warmup Help

[m@rty]

Hi guys,

I know this is probably a stupid question, but can some of you gym pro's tell me how to properly warmup before using the treadmill at the gym?

Everytime I go to use the treadmill I pull my Calf Muscle after just a few minutes, and it brings tears to my eyes literally

Thanks

Quite a few there, even if it is a terrible website and the images do make me laugh!

I also like put my feet together and then bend down so that my bum touches the floor (A very deep squat) and then push back up again. Maybe going on the bike for 5 minutes before hand might be a good idea? Hardly tiring and will get some blood in your legs.
