Why is a warm up important before starting any physical activity?

What portion of the nervous system most specifically prepares us for physical activity or stressful situations?
The portion of the nervous system that most specifically prepares us for physical activity or stressful situations is the sympathetic nervous system. It is part of the autonomic nervous system and activates the "fight or flight" response, increasing heart rate, dilating airways, and redirecting blood flow to muscles. This prepares the body to respond to perceived threats or engage in vigorous physical activity.

How does anaerobic exercise improve fitness?
prepares the body to survive during stressful situations, perhaps in situations where a limited oxygen supply is available.
How does physical activity prevent injuries?
Physical activity strengthens muscles, ligaments, and tendons, which enhances overall joint stability and reduces the risk of injury. It also improves flexibility and balance, allowing the body to adapt more effectively to sudden movements or impacts. Additionally, regular exercise promotes better coordination and proprioception, helping individuals maintain body awareness and control during physical activities. Overall, a consistent routine of physical activity prepares the body to handle various stresses, thereby minimizing the likelihood of injuries.
