Alpha Dog Sports believes in using a dynamic warm-up routine instead of the traditional method of sitting on the ground and stretching. A dynamic warm-up requires the athlete to bounce around, creatively stretch their muscles, exercise balance and body control, and reinforce specific forms of proper movement technique. This type of warm-up routine also awaken's an athlete's mind for the upcoming workout. By conducting a better warm-up routine, you will accomplish more in your practices and be better prepared for your games. So don't begin your next practice by sitting your athletes on the ground. Instead, kick it off by implementing a handful of the following drills on this video.
