Opinions on warm up sets?

One day you'll lift heavy enough to need the warmup

If she breathe...

I have the same deadlift and have a pretty good physique. Its a pretty useless lift in terms of aesthetics.

I only warmup on deads, just to make sure my back knows what the fuck is coming.

every other lift, I just hop into it.

ya fizzlin?

Important for a few reasons.
It's literally warming your muscles to a temperature above room temp, which enables greater efficiency of enzymatic reactions necessary for production of ATP and force. It also increases synovial fluid production in joints (lubricates them), and increases delivery of substrate to peripheral tissue through increased blood flow.
Second, practicing the movement at lower weights (especially in new lifters) incites neurological adaptations and coordination of neutralizing and stabilizing musculature. Think about learning to walk as a child. It takes many repetitions and much time for an infant to learn to walk efficiently, which is further perfected throughout life in response to changing anthropology, injury, etc.
Tl;Dr: it's important, but you also have to find a Goldilocks zone between getting warm and blowing your wad too soon such that you're too gassed for your working sets. For beginners, less warmup is needed. Intermediate and advanced trainees need more.

That's at best going to limit your endurance and at worst gonna result in serious injury. You should always do at minimum one or two warm up sets for your primary lifts.

The heavier you go the more you need it. I don't need it at 1 plate bench, but my squats suck if I can't warm up, as I cannot go deep enough.

>Intermediate and advanced trainees need more.
I read that as advanced trannies

>she
OH NO NO NO

it helps your joints but also gets blood into the muscles you're about to use
if you care about fatigue, just dont do a pyramid or something based on warming up--make the jump from light to heavy

OOOOOHHHHHH
IIIIIII'MMMMMMMMM CUMMING

You should do something to warm up in general, like run on the treadmill or pedal the club bikes for 10-15 minutes.
You should also do warmup sets before lifting high weight/low rep sets, unless you enjoy having tendon and ligament problems, or perhaps torn muscles.

Should i warm up my triceps if i already did chest and shoulders? i do weighted dips and 1 long head exercise for triceps

Do you want exploding DOMS?
Then warm up.

I need a short hair gf so fucking badly bros

Too waifish to be my waifu. Need thiccer for my Aryan sons.

Anyway, warmups are non-negotiable in my book. I tend to take roughly half-pl8 jumps up to my 60% set, then 10% from there up to my top set. Today's squats:
>5x45
>5x95
>5x135
>5x175
>5x205
>5x235
>5x265
>5x295
then did my accessories like a boss. Front squats 4x8, hip thrusts 3x10, back ext and leg raise super set 3x12

1 set per 100lbs of the first working set.
The last warmup about 40lbs off. Each other about 100lbs or multiples off.
Usually for 5s, unless I'm warming up for singles or doubles, in which case, I start with 5 and taper off.

Ex 1: first working set of deadlift at 5x340lbs, warmups of 5x140, 5x240, 5x300.

Ex. 2: first working set of squat singles at 1x340, warmups of 5x140, 4x240, 3x300.

Method works for everything, even machines.

Super important. Ensures that your muscles are warm and helps to prevent injuries. Tbh, it’s crazy to me that people skip warming up.

I have an office job so I’m sitting for like 8 hours a day. I need to warm up and stretch or I’ll mess myself up.

Liberal propaganda.

Load up your 1rm on the squat rack as soon as you get there and just go for it.

I like em when i have time for it

Same, but I've already lost hope, honestly.
