Warming up the rotator muscles of the hip is needed to prevent injury, especially during exercises like squats. A great warm-up exercise involves standing with toes pointing forward and going into a squat position. As you squat, rotate one leg inward toward the body while keeping your hips and torso facing forward. Return to standing and switch legs, repeating this movement to activate the rotator muscles and improve hip flexibility for better, more comfortable workouts.
