Benefits of Warm-Ups
Increases blood temperature
When you are warming up, there is an increase in blood flow all over the
body, which translates to increased blood temperature. This action reduces
the oxygen amounts in your blood and frees it up for your muscles, where it
is mainly needed. In general, enhanced blood temperature translates to
improved endurance and performance.
Mental benefits
Warms up muscles
A regular exercise routine causes an increase in both body and muscle
temperature. The benefit of this action is that warmed up muscles ensure that
you are capable of performing a good workout session. It also enhances
speed along with strength. Moreover, the risk of getting tissue or muscle
injury is reduced greatly.
Heart benefits
When you perform a warm up, your blood vessels are going to dilate and
more blood flows across the body. The dilation of blood vessels lowers the
stress placed on the heart through lowering blood flow resistance.
