The Real Cost of Skipping Warm-Ups

Ten minutes of intentional warm-up could save you a month of rehab. Here's the exact framework we use at EVOS.

Every EVOS session opens with a 10-minute Ramp: 3 minutes of general (bike, row, jog), 3 minutes of mobility, 4 minutes of activation specific to the day.

Skipping it isn't just an injury bet — it's a performance tax. Your nervous system, joint capsules, and connective tissue all need a runway. Cold tissue can't express the strength it owns.

The framework: General → Specific → Potentiation. Get warm, move what you'll move today, then prime the pattern (e.g. light goblet squats before your back squat).

Do this for 12 weeks straight and your top sets get heavier with no extra programming. Promise.
