You're gonna get hurt when your "best" weight is more than 35lbs

You will do them when your injuries fuck you up.
Who is the girl OP?

>>40759837
he made a retarded example but he's right in that you're hindering your progress when you get to actually heavy weights. (1.5-1.7 times your bodyweight)

What weight should be my warm up sets?

50% or more/less?

>>40760187
When I'm doing 5x5, my first set is actually 1x18 with ~50% of the weight I use in the remaining 4 reps

Fuck extra sets with sissy weights, I'm already doing extra volume I'd like to avoid this way
I do add 5 mins pre-workout light cardio/warm-up plus 2~3 min bodyweight exercise

SAGRA

Depends on the exercise and what you've done previously that day.

For squats, I do:
2x5 bar
1x5 40% working weight
1x3 60% working weight
1x2 80% working weight
3x5 working weight

>>40760187
read starting strength

>>40759728
Sounds like you're on point, when your best weight is the bar.

>not knowing who the girl is
you're on the wrong board

>>40759728

I usually only warm up at the very beginning of a workout, or to see if I'm recovering from an injury well enough to do a working set. Fuckin shoulder refuses to completely heal.

>>40760187
My first weight is usually around 1/3 of my max.

Not exact, just whatever is close to it and doesn't require too many different weights.

Increments while warming up is around 20kg for squats and deads, 20kg for bench (starting at a point where final warmup is ~10kg short of my work sets) and 10kg for press.

Rep ranges between 5 and 3.
