Training without properly warming up is like bungee jumping with a cord sprayed with liquid nitrogen (OK, maybe not that severe, but just go with it). My clients will usually spend 10-15 minutes warming up including foam rolling, muscle activation, and dynamic movements. When a new resource comes out that can help [...]
