346 | Should You Be Doing Warm Ups? What's Effective? What's Not?
Do you warm-up? At times, warm-ups feel unimportant or a waste of time, however, DocJen & Dr. Dom break the confusion in this episode. With a high emphasis on specificity, they explain the importance of strategically warming up the body to prepare for the upcoming movement, how to appropriately activate the body before exercise sessions, whether stretching is really that bad before movement, and how you can optimize your warm-ups for injury prevention. Let’s dive in!
