When you warm up, extend your arms out to the fullest and extend your body.

Warming up will give you the greatest benefit if you extend into the stretches. Keep energy in your hands and arms, and extend from the center of the ribcage during upper and full body stretches. During any of the moves that require you to bend, pull your upper body away from your hips, keep your back straight and breathe deeply.

If you keep energy in your body and really move into the stretches, you'll get much greater benefits from the moves. And always be sure to stretch out before working out or performing.
