warm up routine

[AdamInNY]

Been reading a lot about static stretching vs. dynamic warmup routines. Just wondering what others are doing. I currently have our players do a combination of static stretching and various running drills, we then pair up and throw. Starting at 10' apart with cement throws backing up to ~84'(the older LL kids) with normal throwing.

Thanks

Jon Doyle had a great DVD with a seven minute warm up that we used... He may have something available on YouTube or at his site.... If you can't find it PM me your home address and I'll send you my copy as long as you pass it on when you are done.

I am a big proponent of dynamic stretching. we do this every day before throwing. However, I will ask the kids to do some static stretching if they have a long bull pen session or early in the season when we do alot of conditioning.

Are you doing the dynamic stretching at the end of your practices, or do you mean in additional to the dynamic stretching to start?
