    How do YOU warm up?

    As the heading says! Cardio equipment? Bands? Dynamic stretching? Specific movements? Rollers? I'm just interested in forms of warm ups! For me, it's dynamic stretching and band work. Have a good weekend!

    I have been wondering when something goes from being a warm up to being a working set. Does anyone have any opinions? If i did 10kg less weight than my intended working sets would that be a warmup or just another working set?

    Start heavy & go light? Or vice versa?

    Hi guys, For 3 years I trained light, then heavier, then heaviest. Eg. Bench 60kg/10 reps, 70kg/8 reps, 80kg/4 reps. Recently I flipped it: 80kg/6 reps, 70kg/8 reps., 60kg rep till fail. I find it much better as you are able to lift the heavy weight straight away as your muscles are not...
