In Part 2 of A Necessary Pivot, Paige breaks down one of the most overlooked—and most impactful—pieces of gymnastics training: the warm-up. This episode challenges traditional “run and stretch” routines and introduces a smarter, science-backed approach to preparing gymnasts’ bodies and minds for performance. Using the R-MAP method (Raise, Mobilize, Activate, Potentiate), Paige explains how intentional warm-ups can boost performance, reduce injury risk, and improve longevity in the sport. Whether you’re a parent, athlete, or coach, this episode offers practical insight into how small changes in preparation can create stronger foundations for long-term success in gymnastics.
