Questions & Answers about shusaisha to junbiundou o suru.
Here, と means with, not and.
So:
- 主催者と = with the organizer
- 準備運動をする = do warm-up exercises
Together, the sentence means something like (I / we / someone) do warm-up exercises with the organizer.
Why is it not and? Because 準備運動 is marked by を, so it is the thing being done. That makes 主催者と the partner or companion in the action.
If と meant and, the sentence structure would not make much sense here.
準備運動 is a noun meaning warm-up exercise or warming up. In Japanese, many nouns can combine with する to make a verb phrase.
So:
- 準備運動 = warm-up exercise / warm-up
- 準備運動をする = to do warm-up exercises
This is a very common pattern:
- 勉強をする = to study
- 運動をする = to exercise
- 準備運動をする = to do warm-up exercises
The particle を marks 準備運動 as the direct object of する.
