This 10-minute morning mobility routine warms up your joints, activates stabilizer muscles, and prepares your body for any workout you have planned. It requires no equipment and can be done in a small space.

The routine flows through ankle circles, deep squat holds, hip 90-90 stretches, thoracic spine rotations, shoulder dislocations with a towel, and neck circles. Hold each position for 30 seconds and transition smoothly between movements.

Physical therapists say that consistent morning mobility work reduces injury risk by up to 30 percent and can improve workout performance by ensuring joints move through their full range of motion before loading them with resistance.
