Warming up for athletic events
Published 1985“…Coaches, physical educators and athletes of almost every athletic activity assume that the warming-up procedure is a mean by which athletic performance may be improved, and the chance of injury reduced; they also hold that the benefits of warming up have been attributed to an increased range of motion in the joints, increased circulation, decreased viscosity, increased body and muscle temperature and neural facilitation (24) and that warming up has an inherent psychological effect since it helps the athlete to achieve a state of mental readiness or mind set. …”
