Ok so the point of doing warm up exercises and stuff is to stretch and to get your heart beat going and maybe even a little sweat right? I know thats about the jist of it but what about this other thing I thought of one night. Seems to get all of those things out of the way during intercourse aye? Not to mention I actually saw a show named Brainiac that did research into this just in a different method. They wanted to test that if you could play soccer better after having intercourse due to a theoredical adrenaline rush after the fun act. Could warm ups be replaced with intercourse? lol I know it's silly but still just a fun idea, it'll give me a new excuse to have fun aye? (The only negative part that I could think of is not enough stretching involved lol.)

Also, little side question. What type of push ups are theses. Body extended off the ground in a sitting position, legs straight out on something else and arms behind you so your butt is out in the air. Then you lower yourself and push yourself back up. This any good? lol

hello,

you are correct to a point. the true purpose of the warmup is to improve circulation and identify any previously unknown injuries.

improving circulation, to open all of the blood vessels in the body. during various times, activities, temperatures, or conditions, the body may constrict bloodflow to various areas.

consider this... if you are in a state of restricted blood flow to your hands and feet, will your balance and motor skills he higher or lower? if lower, is your injury risk higher or lower?

also, sensitive areas like the brain are full of blood vessels and thus is susceptible to injury due to sudden onset of blood pressure. by opening blood flow to the entire body, the blood can flow freely, do we increase or decrease this risk?

the increase of bloodflow can be accomplished just as readily by stretching as by calisthenics. for warmup purposes they are identical.

as far as the similarity to sexual activity... yes. nearly identical adreniline stimulation. the myth that "women give you weak legs" is false. if fact several studies proved that sexual activity the night before a sporting event (like running, boxing, wrestling) improved performance. while the effect on individuals participating in team sports was difficult to measure (teams depend on much more than individual efforts) most reported feeling "more in control, focused" or "less stressed".

however, practical matters preclude the usage of sex as the main warmup method in a martial arts school. hahahahahahahaha!!!

most wouldn't think of a warmup as an opportunity to "find hidden injuries". it is. and it is exactly as it sounds. just a chance to say "oh, kinda sore right there...".

not sure the name for this pushup. have seen them. have done them. they work. the higher the angle of the pushup, the more pressure you place on the shoulders, the lower the angle, the more pressure you place on the pecs.

if you are in handstand position, a pushup will be performed using mostly your shoulders and arms.

if you are in standard pushup position, the pushup divides the effort between the shoulders and pecs (and arms of course).

if you are in hanging "dip" position, the pushup is performed using mostly the lower part of your chest and your arms.

is this clear? holler back if it isn't.

thanks.

Thanks again man lol. The funny part about the intercourse thing is that in the study I saw they did something different. Both teams played normal for the first half. Then one team went to do some boring stuff like chess and read books. The other team got lucky so to speak lol. When they came back the boring team smoked the other team because they were like physically shot.

I keep thinking you're Garland...

I read somewhere that sex can burn anywhere from 300 to 600 calories per hour, depending on intensity. Obviously, hard bangin' burns 600 cals per hour where as the slow and easy stuff probably gets ~ 300.

I think I might have a new pick up line.

Ahem...

Next time a hot girl walks into the gym. Walk up to her and simply say, "Hey, would you mind helping me warm up a little?"

I recomend wearing a cup before attempting this.

this might sound ridiculous, but i saw an episode of undressed (remember that show?) a few years back, and some people in the show thought of the same thing. they wondered if they had sex before their basketball game, then would they play better. and they did, but they did something a little different. instead of completing to the point of orgasm, they stopped mid intercourse. this way they weren't all tired and had a lot of built up energy that needed to be released. now, given it was fictional television, i think it had some plausibility to the concept. what do you guys think? feasible?
