## [Top 5 Cardio Warm-Ups to Make the Most of Your Gym Session](https://blog.movementgyms.com/top-5-cardio-warm-ups-to-make-the-most-of-your-gym-session)

A good cardio warm-up is one of the most underleveraged tools in the gym. It gets blood moving to the muscles that are about to work, improves your range of motion, and sets the tone for a better session overall. The good news is that it doesn't need to take long; 5 to 15 minutes of purposeful movement to get your breath going before you climb, lift, or flow makes a real difference in how your body performs and recovers. Not to mention you get to explore all the fun tools and machines Movement has to offer. Here are five cardio warm-ups worth adding to your rotation.

## [Community Spotlight: Brooke's Journey to Conquer a 100-Mile Trail Race](https://blog.movementgyms.com/community-spotlight-brookes-journey-to-conquer-a-100-mile-trail-race)

With any big dream, there’s always a moment when it feels too big, too unattainable, and maybe even a little crazy to say out loud. For Brooke Deans, that moment came in the fall of 2023 when she decided to take on the challenge of a lifetime: running a 100-mile race. And not just any race—the Canyons 100 Mile Endurance Run, part of the prestigious UTMB World Series, and the only major of its kind in North America. Brooke had only been racing for a year, with three races under her belt—two 50Ks and one 50-miler. But she was ready for this monumental leap.
