The warm up is an essential part of any activity programme, it boosts circulation, creating energy and warmth, which makes muscles more pliable, ligaments more resilient and joints move more freely. It also stretches the muscles for the activities ahead.
Muscles that have been warmed, and then stretched slowly and carefully, respond better to every demand made of them. Pre-stretching the muscles by gently lengthening them also reduces tension, helps to guard against injury in larger movements and improves posture poise and performance.
