What is the purpose of a Dynamic Warm-up in a PT session?

The purpose of a Dynamic Warm-up in a Physical Training (PT) session is to prepare the body for exercise through specific movements. This type of warm-up involves engaging in activities that mimic the movements one will perform during the workout, thereby increasing blood flow, elevating heart rate, and improving muscle elasticity. By incorporating dynamic stretches and exercises, participants not only enhance their range of motion but also activate the muscles they will utilize, reducing the risk of injury during more intense physical activity. A well-structured dynamic warm-up effectively primes the musculoskeletal system for higher intensity exercises, leading to better performance and overall safety.

Other options such as cooling down, promoting muscle growth, or focusing solely on aerobic endurance do not align with the primary goal of a dynamic warm-up, which is specifically targeted at preparing the body for the physical demands ahead.
