The Burgener Warm-up was designed by Mike Burgener of course! He is the owner of Mike's Gym and the guru of Olympic lifting for CrossFit. The warm-up consists of six sequences that are important for learning the Olympic lifts. Grab some PVC and learn a new skill.

We are almost ready to start training. Getting linked to the main site is just around the corner too! Better start warming up.
This is a great video courtesy of CrossFit and Greg A. A warm-up should be much more then just spending 15 minutes on a treadmill. You need a warm-up that will increase heart rate, body temperature, provide some stretching, stimulate the entire body, provide practice for basic movements, and finally, prepare for rigorous athletic training. The options for warm-ups are endless but CrossFit provides a great one. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed.
