There are a number of quality studies to prove the positive impact of warm-ups on performance, however, in some cases, it also resulted in detrimental effects on the performance of some athletes due to an unstructured warm-up.
The RAMP model of designing a structured warm-up routine by Ian Jeffreys addresses all the key components of an effective structured warm-up routine. The aim of this model is to fully prepare athletes both mentally and physically by the end of the third phase and get them ready for the competition or the training session. โฃโฃ ๐น๐๐ก๐ ๐.๐.๐.๐. ๐๐ซ๐จ๐ญ๐จ๐๐จ๐ฅโฃโฃ RAMP stands for Raise, Activate and Mobilize, and Potentiate.
