Having short club meet this weekend and swimming only 2 50m events. (fr and br).
I've always used to warm up before any events but I heard many times folks telling that there's no need to warm up for 50 and some even told it's not recommended. The question is addressed mainly to sprinters: What do you think? Do you warm up before 50 events? If you do warm up for 50s, could you pls type some examples?
Absolutely. For me, you gotta get the engine revved before racing. I don't think you need a huge amount of warmup, but definitely some burst 12.5s to 25 distance about 15-20 minutes before race time.
