Daily Movement Tip: Back & Forward Leg Swings
Before you clock in, hop in your rig, or step onto the unit floor, your body deserves a proper warm-up. At Med-Shred, we include Back & Forward Leg Swings in several of our Shift Mobility Warm-Ups because they’re quick, effective, and essential for prepping your lower body.
✅ Benefits for Healthcare Workers:
- Loosens hips and hamstrings after sitting or driving to work
- Activates glutes and quads to support lifting and patient transfers
- Improves balance and mobility, lowering your risk of injury on shift
- Gets blood flowing so you start your day ready—not stiff
⚡ Why It Matters:
In healthcare, you don’t ease into your shift—you’re often moving patients, pushing equipment, or responding to emergencies right away. Warming up just a few minutes before starting can mean the difference between moving well and nursing aches all night.
Start strong. Protect your body. Lead by example.
