![]() Crucially, the warm-up needs to be considered in relation to all of its potential benefits, rather than simply as a means of short-term preparation for performance. ![]() What is important in this evolution is that a systematic approach is adopted where a methodical and organized structure is employed via which activities can be organised to achieve specific objectives. Traditional systems of constructing warm-ups are far from optimal and need to evolve. #strengthandconditioning #strengthandconditioningcoach #warmup #warmupexerciseĪ post shared by Human Kinetics on at 11:59am PST The RAMP System Want to learn more?

Ian Jeffreys, author of the new book, The Warm Up, explains why warming up must be part of every training session and is integral to sport preparation. Therefore nailing the warm-up in the short amount of time they have with an athlete is key. ![]() The video below, taken from our Instagram page shows Ian Jeffreys talking about how time is a barrier for coaches and athletes. He looks beyond a warm-up as simply a preparation for performance, to a transformational position where the warm-up is an integrated part of every training session, systematically planned to optimise athletic performance, both acutely and as part of a long-term development process. That is what he has done with his recent research which has now been published in his new book The Warm-Up. Jeffreys states that it is time to reevaluate and modify our warm-ups and to use a completely new thought process. Today, warm-up procedures are evolving and new scientific research and practical evidence are being integrated into means and methods that have the capacity to significantly enhance the athlete’s warm-up. This has led to increasing numbers of coaches to question traditional beliefs and investigate various methodologies that are able to optimise warm-up procedures. Consequently, even when viewed solely as short term preparation, many generally accepted practices are based more on supposition than real evidence. While generally accepted as an integral part of every training session, the traditional processes of warming up have been the subject of surprisingly few quality research studies.
