    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!

    Warm ups and attempts for deadlift only

    How do people warm-up and plan attempts for a push/pull or deadlift only competition? I just realised I always just add 10kg and get plenty of work in when I train. Never really a focus on the max weight I can hit I just get reps in lol. When I compete, I am already very warm for deadlifts and...

    When is a warmup set a warm up set and when is it a working set?

    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?
