What if your warmup could be more targeted to your individual nervous system? In this episode, I speak with my trusty podcast producer, Tony, all about the neurology of warming up. I discuss common warmup techniques and analyze them from a neurological perspective to better understand their effectiveness. I also make the case for tools that may not be typically associated with warming up that we can use for a more targeted effect. I discuss warmups for combat sports, strength training, ball-sport athletes, and more. I also talk about how to choose high payoff warmups, the importance of specificity for sport vs targeting higher order neurological systems, how to build buy-in with athletes, instances where warmups can be counterproductive, order of operations for warmups and training in general, sympathetic vs parasympathetic stimuli, autonomic function and performance, training with less tension, breathing exercises, and more.
Thank you to my podcast idea man and coach, Tony Fowler (Instagram: @tone_reverie) for helping me put together this episode!
