Warming up for OH Speedsolving

[pjk]

What do you all do to warm-up for OH speedsolving? I know for 3x3 I will solve big cube, or just do several 3x3 solves. For OH, are there any other techniques you use to warm-up your hand for solving?

For OH, I usually just go through a bunch of finger tricks, and then a couple solves.

I just solve over and over and over again I'll get faster and faster for awhile then mid solve my hand will just die.

5x5 or 3x3 or just what Lofty says.

Right now I think I will get in shape for OH solving by not solving. I woke up with pain in the joint of my index finger and all my other fingers are slightly sore.

I think the best way to warm up for OH solving is just to drill OLLs and PLLs OH for a while.

I just practice some 3x3 cubes and then when my hand is warm enough I go for it. ^^

Real, but boring warm-up technique: Do 1 slow 5x5x5 solve to practise look-ahead, do 1 slow 3x3x3_oh solve to warmup your fingers. Do 1 normal 5x5x5 solve to practise look-ahead at greater speed. Do 1 3x3x3_oh solve as fast as possible to activate "killer instinct". Now you are all warmed-up without being tired.

An alternative technique involves a girl, but although you get warmed-up very well you never do an average

Don't think that helps speedsolving (one handed or two).

Could you please be more explicit about this technique ?
(If too explicit for this forum, feel free to send me an email. )




PS: this is a joke ;-)

Maybe we should do some scientific experiment?

Proposal:
Do an average without warmup on monday
Do an average after "regular" warmup on tuesday
Do an average after "Arnaud's method" on wednesday
Don an average on friday after "Arnaud's method" on thursday
Ask the girl what the best warmup method is
