We have attached below the Archery GB-designed warm up exercises
They consist of both movements to warm up the muscles, and stretches, to keep those muscles soft and supple after exertion.
It is vital that all archers understand warm-ups and cool-downs, in order to reduce and even prevent any possible injury to their muscles caused by the practice of archery.
You’ll see a lot of archers doing these, but as always you need to find what’s best for you. Speak to your GP first if you have not exercised for some time, or if you have medical conditions or concerns. Make sure your activity and its intensity are appropriate for your fitness.
