Warming up before exercise is essential. This is due to the fact that the body must gradually prepare for stress in order to avoid negative consequences and injuries.
Through warm-up, the human body is rebuilt in such a way as to better prepare for the upcoming workout. Without it, changes in the body will occur directly during exercise, which reduces not only efficiency, but also the final result of sports achievements.
It should be noted that the preparatory part improves the functioning of the respiratory and blood supply organs. This is necessary for proper blood circulation so that it flows to the working organs, and organs that are not working in physical exercise do not need an abundant blood supply. Sweat production is a good indicator as it is the result of increased cutaneous blood flow.
Warming up all parts of the body results in an increase in body temperature. This, in turn, lowers the viscosity of the blood and increases the rate of contraction of the muscle tissue. Increasing the elasticity of the ligaments significantly reduces the risk of injury during training. This leads to the fact that the joints become more mobile.
Prepared body parts improve metabolic processes and increase the threshold of fatigue. This is due to the fact that it is impossible to go directly to high loads, since the body has not rebuilt at all.
A good warm-up starts from top to bottom, starting with the cervical spine and ending with the tips of the toes. Typically, the total warm-up time is at least 15-20 minutes (the longer the warm-up, the better the result). At the first stage, a general warm-up of all muscle groups is carried out (for example, jogging, exercise bike). Next, you need to carry out an intense warm-up, which includes pull-ups, push-ups, jumping out, etc. The third stage is a special warm-up. It is advisable to go through a not very difficult route with a rope (hole).
