Warm-ups

Importance of Warming Up

We encourage everyone to perform an adequate warm-up before starting a workout. Warming up increases your core body temperature by pumping blood to working muscles, which can help mitigate injuries and improve your ability to perform in your workout.

When you start your workout, you will be asked to complete a warm-up and you will be given a list of our 7 different warm-up options. Choose one and tap Start Warm-Up. If you do your own warm-up outside of Volt, feel free to hit Skip in the upper right corner to jump straight into your workout.

Warm-ups are based on our circuit workouts so all you have to do is tap, Start Warm -Up and Volt will do the rest, by automatically progressing you through each movement with timers and audible guidance.
