To me, squats are the best way to warm up before stretching, since it gets your body ready for any kind of stretching. I also like doing jumping jacks and I jump with the jumping rope.

Start moving very slowly and gently. If you can walk for a minute or two and then start gently to move into your stretching movements, stretching more and more until you feel a good stretch. That’s how you can warm up your muscles.

I start with gentle, slow rotations and circular stretches of the major muscles and joints. I do this until that group feels warm. Then I move to the next.
From the extremities to the core.

Running or walking are great ways to warm up. If you enjoy dance or some other aerobic type exercise, doing that for a few minutes would be great. I do yoga as exercise most mornings, so I typically begin with some deep breathing and then ease into yoga stretches gently. Just relax, listen to your body, and never try to maintain or push into a painful stretch.

I don’t usually have a warm-up time before stretching. Stretching itself is the warming up for starting thd day and the afternoon.
