There are a few concepts I like to follow when warming up before activity. These concepts are important because they can help with mitigating injury risk during activity as well as prepare your body for that specific task.
In this video I focus these concepts on the shoulder joint.
The concepts include:
1. Increase your body temperature.
2. Move the area through its available range of motion.
3. Activate the muscles.
4. Load the joint.
5. Lightly begin the activity.
You can apply these principles to different areas as well such as the hips, knees, ankle, etc.
