Take Your Time & Warm-up


A good warm-up must accomplish several tasks:

1) Raise Heart Rate
2) Raise Core Body Temperature
3) Prepare connective tissue and muscle for dynamic movement
4) Prime the Nervous System
5) Grease key movement motor pathways

Warm-up is a time to work on skills. It's a time to practice unloaded technical variations of the movements to come. So go figure out that if you are front squatting for example, you may need to prep your hips a little more than a few body weight squats will accomplish.
