This is a basic warm-up protocol that we recommend for use with athletic or fitness training. Add any warm-up drills that address your own particular problems, and omit any you don't need. You can also precede this warm-up with a quick foam rolling series.

You can see our weightlifting warm-up here.

Greg Everett 2012-01-26 Lisa - Works fine for me. Do you have Quicktime installed?

ben 2012-02-12 not working for me either

Tarun 2012-05-29 I highly suggest uploading your video to youtube cause not everyone has quicktime, plus you would get far more views if it was on youtube compared to being hosted on your site. Enjoy!

Andrew 2013-02-22 Gonna use this warm-up before workouts. Less than 10 minutes to warm up sounds good, thanks!

Diamond 2013-05-19 I've been doing really well on this siplme program, just hit a PR on my C&J in fact.Nick, do you ever have your lifters wait a certain amount of time between singles? I just seem to wind up waiting longer as I get heavier, and doing it by feel. It can take me between 1.5 2 hours to finish my workout.I've been doing a 3-4 day a week program of 20 sn, 10 C&J, Squat one day, then 20 C&J, 10 sn, Squat the next day. I alternate Back Squat and Front Squat as well.

Dave 2013-11-30 Here's an interesting idea: don't require anybody to install QuickTime to watch a video. QT is an aggressive pest that wants to install stuff I don't need. Why not make it *easy* for people to watch?

Steve Pan 2013-12-03 Dave - The video is also availble on YouTube at the link here: /youtu.be/XhHc7FbSUiY

Greg Everett 2014-02-05 Dave - You can step back off the ledge now, the YouTube version is now embedded here.

Henrique Dantas 2015-06-10 Excellent Video

JULIAN VENANCIO 2015-10-20 GREAT TIPS! AWESOME!

Jeffrey Chan Tin 2015-12-21 On average, how long should this warm up take? 10 minutes or so should be good. Steve Pan

Logan 2016-04-27 Thanks, Greg. And thanks, Amit.

Vlad 2016-05-24 I wish my spider-man lunge looked like that...
