So you admit you know nothing about training.

Its a waste of time.  For instance, if I were doing chest and just finished with Bench Press, why would anyone  waste the time "Warming-up" for Incline or any other chest exercise.

No need for TA to warm-up because he's all lightweight.

What about before those bench press sets?

Not really.  I immediately start with 225-240 as my first set.

Warm-ups are as much about setting the weight mentally as warming up the joints.  It's pretty tough to just walk in off the street and start squatting 300 or 400 lbs the first set and not have it feel extremely heavy.

It depends on the definition of warm up sets. When I train, sometimes i like to go Yates style. Ex: First warm up set on bench (and it doesnt have to be on the first exercise),  145, then 225, and during these sets, im ensuring to use strict form and mind muscle connection and just gauging how everything feels. Final set i up the weight to 365 or more for one all out set balls to wall. Training like this you need a spotter because the last set should be heavy enough to where you should only br able to get at most 8 reps.

Anywho, like I said it depends on how it is defined.

I do this but don't really consider it a warmup set. I treat it as getting in the groove and the correct setup for whatever exercise I'm doing next.

I have been also incorporating the Adonis 100 Principle into my workouts.

It works like this:

After 2-3 exercises of 4 sets each of Heavy weight, I will return to an exercise I previously performed (one of the two to three) and drop to a weight where I can just get 10 reps.  I do that weight until I reach 25 reps.  Then I lower the weight a bit and do another 25 reps, however many sets it takes.  Drop the weight again and go for 25 reps and a final drop in weight for another 25 Reps.

It usually takes a lot of sets to get to 100.  Do not bother counting sets, 100 rep total is the goal.  I do this for each body part.  You will get an incredible pump like no other and its kind of satisfying to complete.

i prefer something i call the 'hotdog method'

i place my dick between her cheeks (in the fashion of a hotdog on a bun) and have her gently gyrate. guaranteed to give a diamond hard erection.
