All the drills you may do to "fire your glutes" or "wake up your rotator cuff" will not be nearly as effective if you didn't activate the computer – your central nervous system – first. Specific activation makes a muscle (neuromuscular junction) more sensitive to the neural drive. But if your CNS is not efficient at sending the signal you won't get much out of the specific work.So how do you activate the CNS? The first thing to do, after a general warm-up to elevate body temperature, is to use an explosive drill to fire up the CNS. Any type of explosive activity will do. I prefer either a jump variation or prowler sprints. – Christian Thibaudeau
