Are warmups really just one big meme? I've heard that they

Put on your working weight for deadlifts and try to lift it without any warmup, that's why warmups are important.

Huh, good point.

warm-ups make you pumped - literally, they bring blood to the muscles that helps you lift

also, they prepare you mentally for the weight

and if you are feeling like shit one day, you'll find out during the warm-up, not when you try to do your max and fail

I love warming up, I could spend 3 hours in the gym because of excessively warming up EVERYTHING

I've set many PRs on days where my warmups felt like garbage

I hurt my back on one day my DL warm-ups felt like garbage

Did you ever see a lion limber up before raping a gazelle?

>human muscles and animal muscles are completely the same

>>38060101
But that's just because animals are stupid and don't understand the benefits of warning up.

Alan Thrall's warm up is great and lets me lift without a great deal of discomfort. However I am already fucked up from Muay Thai and Rugby. If you not messed up you don't need excessive warm ups.
