You will add to your strength and increase your results with this easy-to-follow warm-up routine designed for STRENGTH WARRIORS! Too often I see beginners and even advanced lifters ruin their workout by: 1.) They do anywhere from a 15 minute run on the treadmill to a full cardio training session before they start their strength training.(I was WRONGLY taught to do this) 2.) They walk in, load up their working set weight, and start lifting with no regards to how they are feeling that day.(Not knowing any better, I did this when I first started) 3.) They immediately grab the foam roller, or some other torture device, and begin to smash their muscle tissue like tenderizing meat!(Yup, tried that too) If your goal is to get stronger, perform better, build muscle or to utilize weights in any way, cardio and muscle smashing are not the way to warm-up, because they are NOT SPECIFIC to what you are about to do! A proper Warm-Up is vital for STRENGTH and strength is vital for success! Strength is the basis for all other Training Goals! By becoming stronger you are better able to build muscle, lose weight, improve athleticism, prevent injury, and live a healthier lifestyle.
