🎻 The 4 keys of a good warm-up before playing

Before a concert or rehearsal, your body needs real preparation. Many musicians warm up only with their instrument – or do passive stretching yoga way. It's not necessarily bad, but often... incomplete.

Result: recurrent pain, cramping, or even overwork (cervicobrachialgia, overuse syndrome). Here are 4 concrete steps to prepare your body, inspired by the RAMP protocol.

🔥 Raise — Wake up your system

Increases body temperature and blood circulation.
Examples: squats, controlled slots, deadlifts without charge.
30–45 seconds dynamic movements are sufficient.

💪 Activate — Activate the right muscles

Targets deep muscles around the neck and shoulders.
Prepare the technical gesture by strengthening the foundations.
Ideal before an intensive or prolonged game.

🌀 Mobilize — Lubricate your joints

Move your key areas: neck, wrists, pelvis, shoulders.
Slow and fast work, at the end of amplitude, in all axes.
More fluidity, fewer blockages.

🚀 Potential — Prepare your gesture

Repeat your instrumental gesture, without tension.
Add breath, body consciousness.
You physically and mentally prepared your body for the game.

A good warm-up is never a waste of time

Even if you take 3 more minutes before playing, you win: in comfort, in movement, in feeling.
You play better, with more endurance and control. And it's your body that thanks you. Look at the end of this page, I share a routine example already ready in video.
