Coach Stephen talking about the importance of mobility drills and warming up.
The warm up is important. It’s going to activate the nervous system, get more synovial fluid to our joints, it’s gonna increase our heart rate and blood flow to the working muscles when we do the mobility, activation or warm up drills. It’s gonna psychologically prepare us for the training and going to increase our strength, endurance, mobility, flexibility, stability.

What are the benefits of warming up before a workout?
Warmup exercises can help get your body ready for more strenuous activity and make it easier to exercise. Some of the most important benefits of a warmup include:
- Lower risk of injury. Warming up your muscles can help them relax which, in turn, can lead to less injury
- Increased flexibility. Being more flexible can make it easier to move and exercise correctly.
- Increased blood flow and oxygen. Having more blood flow helps your muscles get the nourishment they need before launching into more intense work.
- Improved performance. Studies show that warmed up muscles can help you work out more effectively.
- Better range of motion. Having greater range of motion can help you move your joints more fully.
- Less muscle tension and pain. Muscles that are warm and relaxed may help you move more easily and with less pain or stiffness.
