  • #5 - Domenik Theodorou - Art Behind The Warm-up
    Dec 22 2025
    In this episode, we sit down with Domenik Theodorou, a performance specialist currently working in Rasta Vechta, to explore the often underestimated power of the warm-up. Domenik shares his perspective on why the warm-up should be treated as a training tool, not just preparation, and how creativity can increase engagement, readiness, and transfer to performance. We dive into the concept of microdosing within the warm-up, discussing how small, targeted physical and cognitive stimuli can be used to develop athletic qualities without overloading the athlete. Throughout the conversation, Domenik provides practical insights and real-world examples from professional basketball, showing how warm-ups can be designed to enhance movement quality, decision-making, and overall performance.
    🎯 Topics covered:
    • Why the warm-up is a critical part of training
    • Creativity in warm-up design
    • Microdosing strength, speed, and coordination
    • Bridging preparation and performance
    • Practical applications for coaches and performance staff Whether you’re a coach, strength & conditioning professional, or performance enthusiast, this episode will challenge the way you think about warm-ups and how to use them more effectively.
