Pre-meet Warmup

Before the first meet, plan your warmup.
Some general guidelines:

• Know how much time you need prior to your event.
• Know if you want to warmup alone or with a group or partner.
• Know when to start your warmup. Avoid rushing to warmup.
• Start from general exercises and move to specific event-related activities.
• Start with low intensity and progress to high intensity pre-comp efforts.
• Practice your warmup. Write it down if you need to.
• Keep your warmup consistent but adjust for conditions when necessary.
• Don't do static stretching until after your final event.
