I find the warm-up in S&S challenging!! I just started working the program as exactly by-the-book as I can. I don't favor warm-ups and like to jump into the "meat" of workouts quickly. I usually have some nervousness or anticipation of the main event because I typically push pretty hard and try to hit a PR, make some progress, or at least focus on some key technique aspect.
I tried not to rush the warmup today and "explore the movements" [Dan John]. I got a bit of a sweat during the 3 sets of 3 warmup drills and actually a bit tired. I found some "hip stuff" during the goblet squats that's been slightly bugging me the past year or so and explored some shoulder range of motion in the halos. The SF Hip Bridge is actually neurologically taxing for me as I try to follow the queues in the book [grip the ground with your toes...].
Anyway, I'm shooting for the "simple" goal first of owning 32kg x's 100 swings and 10x's TGU's. Will give it a good, focused, try for the next 6-8 weeks at least. Working for some body composition changes [carrying too much fat].
I'd love to hear about anyone else's experiences with the warmup. Even if you just get it done in 5 min, skip it for whatever reason, or spend some quality time there....
