The Warm-Up: Maximize Performance and Improve Long-Term Athletic Development
Product ID: 191657790
Athletes do not all train the same way, but it is rare to see any athlete—at any level—exercise or compete without warming up. Although the warm-up can take many forms, smart coaches and athletes know that the warm-up should be a part of any training session. The Warm-Up is the first book to describe the science of the warm-up and provide guidelines to maximize its effectiveness through the process of constructing effective RAMP-based warm-ups. The RAMP system— R aise, A ctivate, M obilize, and P otentiate—looks at the warm-up not only as preparation for the upcoming session, but also as tool for athletic development that can cultivate the skills and movement capacities needed to excel in sport. RAMP has become a standard warm-up system recommended by the United Kingdom Strength and Conditioning Association (UKSCA) and is included in professional resources developed by the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA). The Warm-Up provides a library of activities that can be used to maximize the effectiveness of warm-ups within the structure of the RAMP system. Coaches and athletes can incorporate activities to develop warm-ups that directly contribute to performance, or they can use one of five sample RAMP warm-up programs, which are appropriate for a variety of sports and athlete training levels. More than 160 diagrams and photos enhance the text and provide direction for the drills and exercises, and 17 video clips demonstrate movement patterns of the Raise phase. Plus, exercise and drill finders make it easy to find the exercises best suited for specific needs. It’s time to make the warm-up part of the long-term athlete development plan. The Warm-Up will help coaches and athletes use the RAMP system to make warm-ups a more effective part of training that contributes to better performance.

Make warmups an effective part of the technical training session
Provides a detailed explanation of how to make the warmup an effective part of the training session. Warmup should not a time waster before you start but an integral part of the training program. Caused me to make major changes to the way I run warmups for fencing. A quicker, more effective warmup and better use of time. After elements from warmup for a strength and power program, including footwork practice (at increasing speeds and intensity) with technical coaching ad then antagonistic agility pair drills. Obvious in retrospect.

Exceptional. Catalyst for a mindset shift.
Incredible book. I completely re imagined how my teams prepare for training sessions and games. Over an entire year the benefits were beyond the predicted. Prevantable (non contact) injuries were down from 40+ (in a group of 27) to 4 in a group of 34 which included the original 27 surveyed. Skill development was also evident and represented in individual analysis as well as feedback from those individuals. Overall performance of the group was at an entirely new level and the elements taken from the book and tailored to fit our game not just our sport (ie. How we wanted to play) certainly contributed. The group had there most successful year winning a regional competition for the first time. The knowledge gained and applied from this book certainly influenced this.
