Hi Samad,

They main thing about warm up exercises is to get the blood flow going and to prevent injuries.  It can also help with getting you better focused for the session. 

In our DVD Training Secrets Revealed we have a comprehensive section on Warm Ups where we show you a whole routine of warm up exercises you can do before your session or match.

The Controller

Most drills involve one person performing the exercise and the other placing the ball as required by the exercise. We call this person placing the ball the controller. When you are acting as the controller it is a great opportunity to practice your blocking and concentration. As blocking is an important part of the game you should be 100% focused at this time. You also owe it to your training partner to be blocking effectively so they get the most from their exercise.
