🚨ATHLETES WARM UP🚨
A proper warm up isn’t just a ritual, it’s physiology in action. Research consistently shows that dynamic warm ups increase muscle temperature, which enhances nerve conduction velocity, rate of force development, and muscle elasticity🤸🏻♀️🏃🏻♀️
As muscle temperature rises, power output and contraction speed improve while musculotendinous stiffness decreases, meaning you can produce more force, more efficiently. Simply put: warmer muscles contract faster and perform better💪🏼
Beyond performance, warm ups are one of your first lines of defense against injury. Systematic reviews show that structured warm up programs, especially those including dynamic movement, activation, and neuromuscular control, significantly reduce sports related injuries. Increasing blood flow, activating stabilizers, and rehearsing movement patterns primes the nervous system and improves joint coordination before load is applied🧬
If you care about strength, speed, or longevity in the game, earn your intensity. Prepare the system before you stress the system✨
