Is there any such thing as too much warm up?  I just comepeted in the Jiu Jitsu tournament on April 24.  I thought I was warmed up enough!  I was not!  I was talking to a track coach trainer friend of mine that has trained NCAA athletes and he told me they start warming up, as much as, 2 hours in advance.  I was shocked!  I use to think I would waste energy and be gassed.  Warm ups are so important.  Especially to a 37 year old who has had back surgery.  I ended up with the Bronze Metal but with a tight and sore back that is going to take a while to get back in working out mode.  I have some good warm ups, any others out there, would love to hear!  Also, time frame.
