Most warm-ups don't induce enough stress & anxiety, which is needed to perform your best.
Adding cognitive challenges (even if completely irrelevant to the task you're warming up for) is an effective way to help with this (Hordcare et al., 2016).

MYTH BUST MONDAY:
❌ MYTH: You must react to sports-specific information to improve sports performance.
✅ TRUTH: Reacting to abstract cues (colors, numbers, etc.) can improve sports performance 17% better than reacting to nothing.

🗣️“The difference between players at the first level and players at the second, third, and fourth level is not the technique. It’s not the physical. It’s the decisions. And you can’t make the decisions unless you look.” - Albert Puig

Agility is defined as "A rapid full-body movement with change of direction or velocity in response to a stimulus" (Sheppard et al. 2006).
You're not training agility if you're not responding to a stimulus.

🧠Cognitive challenges during warm-ups add a healthy amount of stress which research shows can increase motor readiness and performance (Hordcare et al., 2016).
🎾Great example of this by Iga Swiatek
“Clear improved efficacy of cognitive-motor training (CMT) protocols on sport performance and cognition compared to training based on motor exercises only.”
🏀 ⬆️17% sports-specific tasks
🎯 ⬆️28% response accuracy.

Clinicians use internal focus of attention >90% of the time.
But sport requires an external focus of attention, reactivity, dual-task ability, & real-time error correction.
Here are some examples of how to turn internal focus into external focus w/ different ACLR exercises 👇
Learn why adding increased cognitive demands to your agility training might help develop quicker decision making and better transfer to your sport, and how to effectively apply this using just the SwitchedOn app.
