@austinsugden The best warmup for anything is to do that thing at lower intensity. If you’re starting with bench press, do a nice slow set of 10 reps with half of your working weight. Do this again when you change muscle groups.

@nowhereman Lifting heavy and lifting for muscle growth are totally different goals. Which one is more important it you?
