And this happens through proper exercise and diet. Here are some ways

Warm-up and stretches 
Before undertaking any rigorous physical activity one must indulge in a basic 10-minute warm-up routine and stretch routine, before and after the main strenuous activity respectively. Warming is imperative as sudden jolt of strenuous physical activity can cause a catch or a sprain. Also, stretching is equally important because it prevents the muscles from getting a cramp and recoiling.

Running

Gradually increase the time and distance of your jogging/running schedule day by day and bit by bit. However, if you find this to be more challenging to do on a daily basis, then do it on a weekly basis.
