The Key Elements of Warm-up in Sports: A Comprehensive Analysis of Dynamic Stretching, Cardiovascular Warm-up, and Joint Mobilization

Abstract

This paper delves into the critical elements of warm-up techniques in sports, focusing on dynamic stretching, cardiovascular warm-up, and joint mobilization. These components are analyzed within the context of Chinese sports to understand how they collectively impact athletic performance, reduce injury risks, and optimize overall well-being. The synergy between these warm-up elements is explored, along with practical guidelines for athletes and coaches. Case studies and empirical data from Chinese sports provide real-world insights into their effectiveness.
