Here is everything you need to know about warming up for a workout. First, before you even touch a weight, you should always do something to increase blood flow, whether that’s 5 minutes of walking to get your heart rate up, or just some light dynamic stretching to loosen up your joints. Then for your first exercise, if it’s something really heavy, I recommend doing 2-4 warm up sets with the same technique as a normal set, with each one getting slightly heavier. And to ensure that you’re not building up fatigue that will impact your actual set, never do more than 5 reps on a warm up set, and keep your total combined reps to less than 10. In this case, I did 4 reps, 3, then 2, with 1-2 minutes of rest in between each. Once you finish your last set, which should be around 70-80% of your working weight, rest another 3 minutes, and you are now ready for your first working set. Then, for all of your other exercises, you’ll probably only need at most 1 warm up set if you’re working the same muscle group, since it’s already adequately warmed up. Again, keep that set to 5 reps or less, and use roughly 50-60% of your working weight. However, if you get to another super heavy exercise for a muscle that you haven’t trained yet, you may need to do another 2-3 warm up sets using the same technique as before.
