We like to take our clients through a couple different phases in the warm up.
We call them the “prepare” and “prime” phases.
Prepare- this is all about making sure you’re in the most optimal state to train using self-myofascial release work and mobility. Ex: 3-5 minutes of cardio, targeted foam rolling, and specific mobility work based on your needs.
Prime- here we’re working to activate the muscles that will be needed for this session, work on any weak spots, and then prime the CNS.
Ex: band pull aparts, banded clam shells, MB throw
We’ve found these help our clients avoid injury, as well as perform to their best ability!
