The effect of a specific high intensity warm-up on simulated mixed teams relay triathlon performance
An individualised, high intensity intermittent triathlon specific pre-race warm-up may improve running and overall performance compared to a moderate aerobic or plyometric based warm-up.
A sports-specific warm-up (WU) is important to prepare for the exact demands of competition. The intensity and modality of the WU may be important to maximise possible anaerobic and neurological benefits. Due to the increased intensity of the mixed teams relay (MTR), this study aimed to investigate the effect of three different high intensity (HI) WUs on MTR performance.
