Back when I first started lifting weights, nobody paid an ounce of attention to Mobility drills.

Somehow that didn't stop me from getting stronger. And being here today, alive to tell the tale.

Then something happened...

Overnight, people got suckered into doing cat/camels, quadruped breathing exercises, and lacrosse balling every single muscle group for 30 minutes before touching a weight. Only to discover doing so would wipe you out mentally long before moving on to your main lifts.

Think about it:

How out of tune have we become with our bodies that we can't swing into movement without lengthy physical preparation?

What if a mugger attacked you on the street, demanding your wallet, phone and car keys?

Would you drop down on the sidewalk and foam roll your quads, lats and pecs before taking on the assailant?

What if your house caught fire? You couldn't do a series of arm swings, heel flicks, and A skips before bolting out of there. The smoke and flames would finish you off while you were busy worrying about priming your nerve-to-muscle pathways and producing enough synovial fluids to lubricate the joints.

I'm not saying wa​rming up is completely useless.

I'm saying don't overdo it.
