Solo Warm Up Session

This is the sort of exercise that players should be doing on one on one basis or on their own. Usually people tend to keep this just before the match. The duration of solo warmup session can vary based on how much time an individual player likes to spend alone before the match. Usually players are playing in the team and like to have a team pep talk so the individual session lasts for about ten to twenty minutes. You can have warm up stretches and also have some mental, relaxation exercises too if you are someone who feels anxious before a big tournament.
