Warm up Routine for Sports

Published on 18th Feb 2014 at 10:47 by Admin

For many years we have promoted the use of neuromuscular warm ups for the most common sports in Ireland. Still we see old school coaches sticking with the static stretch warm ups, still we see athletes like Colm Cooper (recently) getting injured.
