FAQs: “Warmups, how should I do them?”
-
This one’s a “gimme” folks. The simple answer is do the activity you planned on training, that specific movement pattern, just at a lower intensity.
-
If you planned on squatting for instance, take a few sets with the bar, then a few with quarters, and so on. If you plan on sprinting, maybe jog a lap, do some high knees and butt kickers, and so on.
-
The purpose of a good warmup is to raise your core temperature (hence the name) and to prepare you for the training. The movement pattern of that training is therefore the best preparatory activity.
-
Sure, 10 minutes on the elliptical will raise your core temperature, but if you plan on doing deadlifts next, you gotta start from scratch with the hip hinge pattern. Just start with hip hinges and gradually ramp up the loading until you feel prepared for your working sets.
-
Most of us aren’t professional athletes so our time to train is finite. By warming up WITH what you plan on training, you kill 2 birds with 1 stone.
-
That 10 minutes on that elliptical could be better spent on another quality working set or 2 giving you a higher ROI per training session. Over weeks and months, that’ll go a long way to get you further along in your progress much faster.
