warm up area
Pre-performance practice space
A warm up area is a designated space where athletes prepare their bodies before competition or performance.
Runners stretch and jog in the warm up area before a race; musicians may have a similar space backstage.
The term appears in sports venues, concert halls, and anywhere performers need to ready themselves: The warm up area was crowded with nervous competitors.
