Why Warming Up Really Matters
Skipping the warm-up is one of the easiest ways to end up injured. A good warm-up prepares your body and sharpens your performance.
What a good warm-up does
- Raises muscle temperature
- Improves flexibility
- Activates the muscles you are about to use
- Prepares your mind and reaction time
Aim for five to ten minutes of gradual, dynamic movement before any activity.
