Hm. so i understood the mentality of the warm up. But after you completed the warm-up you do the working set once? Or how you would do it without the warm-up. I dunno how to explain but can give an example.
Let's say you bench press 4 sets. This warm-up is supposed to prepare you for those 4 sets? Or is it supposed to prepare you for doing your working set. So instead of those 4 sets you do, do just one of them. I hope you understood. Sorry for bad explanation but i really don't know how to put it otherwise.

I am doing one of Jeff's workout programs. In the program, he has 5 different exercises, around 3-4 sets per exercise, and 60s rest between exercises.
He linked this video to suggest that we warmup in this manner (besides doing jump rope, dynamic stretching, whatever to elevate heart rate.
My question is, do we warmup up in the manner suggested in this video before each of the 5 exercises? And how much rest in between each exercise (not each set, which is 60s, each exercise)
Thanks in advance!

I don't understand. I've been following my AX-1 program for a long time. Mostly it's 3 sets of 10-12 reps. So I've been doing for example dumbbell curls, 3 sets of 10-12 reps with 12 kg all 3 sets to failure. Which one is the right way? And I don't understand all these warm up sets for each exercise, over the 5-10 minutes of warm up on a stationary bike (which I do every time I hit the gym. If I do all these warm ups, my training session will last like 3 hours, not 45 minutes.

i believe warm ups should be bodyweight exercises like pull ups and push ups because in warm ups we should target the whole body including core to be working instead of an isolated muscle group so please warm up with those exercises wich includes large muscle groups and train yourself as an athlete. i follows jeff most off the time but for this video sorry for thumps down!

great video. I used your advice, and definitely feel better on my lifts. sometimes I do your total body circuit workouts though, and I'm less Confident in my warm-up for those. I usually jog or if I'm at the gym bike or row machine. any advice or a video for this would be awesome. You rule Jeff, you're the biggest help to keeping me fit after college ball. Thanks!

It's not too different to how I work myself. I'll with some exercises on heavy days work up in a pyramid to my heaviest set I can perform only 6 reps with which will be my first working set and then drop the weight and go all out to failure for three sets of 8-10 reps of which Ill count the whole excercise as 4 working reps (I do not count the warm up sets)

I'm really confused by this, does he mean to complete a warmup set before every excersise we do? or just one that involves the muscle groups/ joints we're using?
in most training programmes it involves 6/8 excersises, and it takes about 40 minutes to get throughm with all these warmup sets it's going to take forever. Am i misinterpreting this?

are you doing more than 1 set at your 10rm? also do you do these warm up sets with every exercise you do?
Seems like its going against the idea of keeping your workouts to around 45min to 1hr because you would be spending so much time with 1 exercise alone.
is this mainly for building strength?

All this time I-ve been making this mistake. I-ve been warming up way too much which has been killing my working sets. I used the percentages shown in this video for the past 2 weeks or so, and my work sets and reps have improved! Thanks Jeff! When are you gonna run for President? -

This is a very good video-tip. Excellent.
Can we omit the -what's up guys? - from the start of every video though? No-one is going to answer that question. It adds nothing, and is mildly annoying because every dam exercise-video seems to have it. Just leave it off.
