How does one prepare for maximum acceleration on the Enterprise? Put on their seatbelt, no wait LOL

It's just for theatrics. Inertial dampers practically negate any notion of movement.

Ex: TNG S4E3 "Brothers": Data commandeers the Enterprise in response to Soong's homing circuit. Due to the lockouts, Riker mentions that "The only way we knew we'd come out of warp was by looking out a window."
