Steps
- 1Raise: 3-5min general pulse elevation appropriate to intensity ahead
- 2Activate: target the day's key muscle groups with light loaded work
- 3Mobilize: dynamic ranges matching sport positions, not static holding
- 4Potentiate: ramp sport-specific intensity ending near working pace
- 5Total 10-15 minutes; fatigue is failure, sweat is success
- 6Adapt content to session focus — leg day ≠ upper day prep
Common Pitfalls
- ▲20 minutes of static stretching before sprint work
- ▲Generic jog-and-stretch ignoring the day's actual demands
