Warm-up has been found to enhance performance and decrease the plausibility of eccentric exercise generated muscle damage. (McMillan et al., 2006) It is hypothesized that dynamic motion, followed by neuromuscular activation through balance and explosive movement may prove to be more beneficial than low level dynamic motion alone. The purpose of the present study was to examine the effects of a dynamic warm-up for the promotion of muscular force production (as measure via a vertical jump).
