Dynamic Warm-Up involves continuous movement preparing an athlete's muscles and joints for a specific sport. Examples of activities for a dynamic warm-up are: jumping jacks, high knees, arm circles, jogging and butt kicks.

Flexibility and Stretching enables athletes to equalize the muscle imbalance. Participating in an activity that uses certain muscle groups and not others can cause one muscle group to overpower its counter muscle group.

Strength helps to support joints and decrease joint stress during an, activity. Increased strength improves muscle reaction time and helps guard the joint. Athletes need to strength train for their specific sport. Core strength (abs, hips, gluts, lower back and hamstrings) is especially important.
