Basic easy movements for easy warmups include a walk progressing to a trot, a few repetitions of, a sit, a down and a stand. Walking backwards is really important. Walking sideways is really important.<\/p>\n<p>Get your dogs to understand and be able to do these movements. If your dog can do those movements, then you&#8217;re covering a big body area for a warmup already.<\/p>\n<p>These are items that you can skills-train quite easily, and you can start doing so today.<\/p>\n<p>Perform these for about 5 to 10 to 15 minutes in your walkups and your cool downs (depending on your dog&#8217;s ability, fitness level and training session intensity.<\/p>\n<p>Along with training for these movements, and use this time as a body check. Train for those movements and incorporate them in a warmup and then also incorporate them in your cooldowns and watch how your dogs perform those movements as part of your body check.<\/p>\n<p style=\"\"><strong>Some post training muscle recovery supplements<\/strong><em>(I have no affiliations to these and do not receive any remuneration from them)<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/annamaet.com\/products\/glycocharge\/\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"outline: none;\">Glycocharge from AnnaMaet<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/k9performance.com\/products\/vertex-joint-health-supplement-for-dogs?variant=43377901797565\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"outline: none;\">Vertex from K9 Performance<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/activpowercanis.com\/shop\/dog\/\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"outline: none;\" data-qb-tmp-id=\"lt-468999\" spellcheck=\"false\">Atlas Muscle and Joint Formula from ActivPower<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"\">Remember, that each dog may react differently to different products, and there are other products out there, but these have a good track record and are well developed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"\">A joint product that I really enjoy is <a href=\"https:\/\/interpath.global\/brands\/\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"outline: none;\">4Cyte and Sashas Blend by Interpath<\/a>.
