How To Warm Up Intelligently (THE RIGHT WAY)
ฝัง

- I get this question all the time. How should I warm up. Well today I am going to tell you the two ways I love to do just that. The first way to warm up that I go over is great if you are in a rush or just don't want to mess around with set after set. Let me tell you this way will get the blood flowing very fast. Just remember to squeeze the muscle with each rep. The second way is ore traditional but it will save you for your work sets. The big mistake a lot of people make is they just do to much when warming up and when they are ready for the big sets they just don't have anything left in the tank.
Give this a try and let me know how it helped. Thanks for watching and don't forget to subscribe and hit the bell notification.

mountaindog1 great video but for me is very hard to get even 15+15 rep with light weight when I’m cold. Being on gear I start feeling the muscle/pump really from set 3 and then I can just do whatever I want. It’s just the first 2 sets when my strength is like at 20%
Дай русский перевод я тебя сколько прошу я нехера не понимаю
john can you please tell me what brand of elbow sleeves you wear when performing your pressing movements?great job on the informative videos
Do we need to warm up on all the different exercises. Thankyou and I really enjoy your content.👍
What you think of 1_3 reps on say 1 plate each side. Then 2 plates each side. Then 3 then 4 each 1_3 reps. Then say 5 plates a side go for reps say 5 sets 5 reps or 4 sets 8 reps.
Every time I hear John open up with “alright hi everybody” I bust out the notepad and pen👍🏽
BOOM!
Good comment, I always know I'm about to learn something as well when I hear that.
I bust out the notepad and tren
BuffLegend 😂😂😂
Me too!
You're making so much quality content all the time that I'm sometimes like 10 minutes late from my workout because I'm like one more video and another oh I have to look this one...
Nihilist Haha same!
Lol I feel you there.
thank you!
I end up binge-watching when I should be sleeping and I know he'd tell me to go to sleep.
Warming up yo legs on that machine gonna hurt yourself... Warming up the legs without using the hamms and the gluts is a really big mistake....
When John Meadows speaks. Just listen and implement. No questions. Period.
This warm-up sets are magic. Ever since I read mike mentzer "heavy duty" booklets/books this warm-up technique is my way to go.
This is my one favorite videos John had. He will be sorely missed. God just got a great training partner
John's warmup is like most of my total train lol!
Man John you amaze me at how consistent you are at putting out solid content and not fluff just for views!
working hard!
Tried this method today. Couldn’t believe that I was fully warmed up in so little time. Thanks for this!
I walk briskly on the treadmill, lightly stretch the target area (glutes/hams/quads) for example. And then when I lift, first set 15/20 reps of a light weight. Then sets of 2/3 as I go up in weight
I’m about 7 months into my weight training and I feel like I’m lucky to live in a time with people like you or other awesome (actually good no bullshit) lifters willing to share their knowledge, I’m surprised the changes i have experienced already, thanks so much. 💪💪💪💪
Thank you thank you thank you. I’ve been doing my level best to do a good warm up! As I age I’m learning to pay attention to my body. I feel like my workouts are much better with a good warm up. Better pump. Better growth. Better strength. Getting them hard work sets in are important!!!
I'm glad you mentioned the importance of squeezing the muscle, even on the easy warmup reps. Gotta get that activation!
All of what you say makes sense to me, I will use this technic next week, thank you and have a wonderful day sir.
this video is GOLD! it has changed everything for me! And understanding feeder sets too! I heard about them before but they weren’t explained how you explained them! mind is blown and my training is a different animal! Wish i knew this along time ago but then it wouldn’t have given me this new fire! THANK YOU again for sharing so much!
Respect and blessings! 👊🏼
More good advice! Not going to consider for some parts but it clicks perfectly for others I’ve been searching for.
Thanks.That's exactly what I needed.I always struggled to warm up my quads correctly.👍👍👍👍🤗
this is exactly the way I warm up, glad ive been doing it intelligently all along. with one exception. I do 3 sets of lighter ascending weight(35% of MAX) higher reps then up the weight to my working sets , by the time I get to my working sets the muscles are screaming!
These videos have helped a lot! This guy teaming up Jeff Nippard have made my sessions killer!!!
excellent!
The guy in the back is warming his thumb and biceps
Great video! I recently tore my pec so the importance of properly warming up has never been more apparent. Especially as we get older I feel these become even more important to staying injury free
I loved this one and the last video about intensity!! Way to go man. Thank you for all your content
Warming up this way is key and a great way to get going thank's John u are awesome for the knowledge and advice ...☝️💪
John, you should do a video on elbow health covering warmup, prehab/rehab, and best practices.
So glad you made this video. I always see training videos but not so much warming up to train. This is where I struggle due to time
The best possible video for my leg day. Thank you John for the great advice!
Just did one of your pull workouts! Super convenient when on the hurry and still need to make those gains!!! Thanks for the tips John!
Just for feedback.. I’m tracking with you. These recent videos have been great. I love how you have built in concept upon concept to educate and build upon techniques. I have learned a lot in life about how to accelerate or speed up the learning curve by acknowledging my need to put in the hard work but also listening to and applying the techniques and advice from the people that are successful in the area of said subjects we are looking to better ourselves in. Nothing in life comes easy and nothing trumps time put in for personal experience but the wise man can recognize and learn from the experts that have paved the way before him. I fully appreciate you and all the thought and follow through you put together for us. You are absolutely top notch. Just some feedback to let you know I am picking up what you are laying down. Thank you!! 👊
thank you for recognizing what I am doing!!!!
Thank you sir helping us young guys out! Its something you don't hear a lot about. I always rush to get to my working sets. I prob need to take a little more time to get the blood flowing thanks.
Love your videos man! Jeff Nippard brought me here and you've definitely made your way into my regular watching routine!
thank you!!!!
Almost no one has good videos on this topic. Much appriciated!
Massive variety of excellent advice, no filler or bullsh*t, exactly what I need, Thanks Again.
Would be cool to see a video on workouts for younger teens/kids for parents looking to introduce their kids to weight lifting.
Everybody listen to your quadfather aka mountain dog aka the man 💪🏻💪🏻
Great video, super important. Love what your bring to the table when you educate.
Best bodybuilding Utuber! Love your content!
That is one of the best thumbnails ever! 😂
LOL!
You remind me of one of the characters on Hee Man. The guy that would use his head to ram walls and buildings.
You my friend are one big dude
Ram Man! Alexander collects He Man vintage
This warmup surpasses the intensity and overall volume of most individuals leg program for a month at the big-box gyms. Imagine the dude with the pin legs that’s always training chest...yes, him...the pinner. If you can’t imagine this dude than that dude is you! Lol jk. Excellent video! Oh, and train legs on Monday since Monday is global chest day. Ah heck, train legs like this anytime you want since those leg machines are always free!! Lol
Great video. I've seen so many people walk in and go straight to a heavy weight. No warm up at all.
Once again I can only agree with you. I hate warm up and cheat some 😂 but not so much that I’ll get lactic acid. I do 3 sets exactly as you describe with high reps first and lower reps as I put more weight on. Only when I’m at my “real” weight I go flat out and to failure.
After first exercise I do only one warm up set to get the feeling and get some blood to that particular area.

Thanks for the great information, John. Information like this is extremely useful.
we are getting a new supplier right now actually, check back
This was *really* great info, thank you!
Like always John, great training tips.
Makes perfect sense. I'm going to start following this method!
You're subscribers are growing even faster. Just hit 300k and and now it says 309 on my end. Congratulations John Meadows!
thank you!
Cheers brother. Much respect from New Zealand 🙏
Very interested worming up explanation
Super cool
I love these videos! Great to watch a few minutes before heading to the gym. Definitely downloading the app! Keep up the great content!
You're videos are so helpful mate 🙏
havnt watched the video yet but i only hop on the eliptical for 5 mins to get blood pumping and have been wondering how to properly warm up. thanks for the great content as always John
Johnny Boy!! Thank you for this, you absolute weapon!!
F*cking love this guy, uploaded this just before i was about to go to my 6am session asking myself how am i gonna warm up lol
Nice way to warm up ... stealing this ... starting tomorrow :-) love it thanks John
thank you John, good tips
Me: Whole body warm up - cycle for 5 mins, then light joint specific warm up (e.g. shoulder internal and external rotations), then dynamic stretching specific to muscles being worked, then these exercise specific warm up set(s).
Peter L. Everybody should light a joint for a warm up!
@@philen LMAO
Spot on !
I think I need to take a time to come out and hit those weights with you and meet you. the content you post has been so helpful!
What's your opinion on the impact that reducing warm up reps via these techniques could have on total weekly volume when it comes to barbell movements? Most of the tonnage I move end up being during my warm up sets (which are quite lengthy because of the ramping up that you've mentioned) so I am curious to hear your opinion on this. Besides that I totally agree on the idea that the number of reps need to be tempered down as you go up in weight, I usually start with 10s and go as low as 4s or 3s.
warm ups should not impact volume or create exhaustion at all...my one style is ONLY for when in a hurry
Man you are a fucking genius. Since I follow your tips I really feel better. Thanks a lot. Big respect from France 💪🏼💥
Thanks John, I appreciate your informative videos!
So pre-squat I was following your advice of doing leg curls first. REALLY made a difference. Then I was kind of doing what you're calling your quick warmup but as a superset, Leg curl and leg extension, with just enough rest to change plates and machines. But same kinda thing, kept dropping the pin down the stacks. Kept dropping reps until i got a solid triple on either machine. Preface that with 3-5 mins of stair stepper and my squat skyrocketed.
Thanks for the tip man.
Just wanted to convey one thing.
You are an ifbb pro and I think you should mention your pro status in your videos.
It would be beneficial for the channel. It may be helpful in driving more people towards your channel
Just a 2 3 second slide would do.
Huge fan🤘
I feel weird saying it...I really do
Awesome glow in the dark leg extension
Thanks for the info john🤙
That's s great warmup I will let you know how it goes
Much appreciated man a lot to learn from this guy! Love these videos keep it up
John Meadows, the father we never had :)
Im 50 and have 2 different warmup routines before i go to the weights. Wen i start with my weight i always do 2 set of light weight with first exercise i do before i start with my working-sets. For upper that would be 2 sets bench press or 2 sets incline dumb press. For lower that would be 2 sets front squats or 2 sets goblet squats.. After that it just depends how i feel. Sometimes i just do a light set before to see how im feeling or checking my form before i do my working sets. That's how i started as a beginner last year and so far no injuries.
I'm from Australia so maybe it's an accent issue but whenever I used to hear John open up with “Alright hi everybody” I used to hear “Higher Body" and I thought that was reference to his followers or a mantra of some sorts. I only realized last month what he was actually saying :o
Really needed this video. Thank you👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
all the time good advices good kind of quality, your videos .... i would appreciate a video about your favorite excersise about gluteus medius and/or seratus anterior external oblique
Damn this was an epic session. 💪 Appreciate your education of us all!
Love your content John, thanx
welcome!
Love the video great tips👍
Warmed up like this on each of my push muscle groups, was naturally executing everything with significantly better form, my reps felt very 'effective'
Great series!
I’ve been needing this
My favorite warm up (for leg day at least) are some dynamic stretches until I feel loose and then 1-5 reps as I work up to working sets.
OMG Mountain Dog you just described my leg press routine except I do 20 reps lol 😂
Training legs makes you wanna jump off the machine as quick as possible lol
Good video, I was thinking about this after watching yesterday's 💪
You doing thumbnails now!! Awesome
Great video on how to warm up the right way
Thank u for the tip
I've been swimming for 20 min to 30 mins then ,hit the elliptical for 5 to 10min. The swimming really helps.
I put cardo first. Then everything has blood pumped in it. Plus I seem more focused and relaxed.
LMFAO you always have the best thumbnails
I imagined some crazy filthy frank esque skits with metal in the background lol
Warm up with stretching is the key... I believe in stretching also between sets
in between some, but alot after!
Mark hamill looks so buffed for the next star wars saga
I usually do 3-4 warm ups on first main exercise. 40% x 15 / 60% x 8 /80% x 4 /100% x 1....or 50% x 10 / 75% x 3-4 / 100% x 1...or 50% x 10-12 / 70% x 4-5 / 90% x 2....All depends how I'm feeling that particular day. 2nd exercise get 1 warm up 75% x 3-4 for feel.
Kinda hard to understand it all as a non native speaker but I get the Idea, that's pretty close to what I'm doing so that's cool. Thanks John Sir.
I normally do. Light weight 20 reps really squeeze and feel muscles. Bit heavier then 15 reps bit heavier. Then 12 reps warm up then work sets still going up in weigh. Not say 3 sets of 12 reps but say heavier 10 reps heavier 8 reps heavier if can't get 8 get 6 do 1 more set of 6. Example 1_3 warm ups increase weight 20 reos15 reps 12 reps. Work sets 4 sets. 1 set 10 1 set 8 2 sets 6
Correct me if I’m wrong, but the purpose of warm up sets is to get the feel of the movement down before you go all-out in your working sets.
love your videos, I walk away a smarter and better lifter
that and get connective tissue ready to handle loads
John make a video on mistakes or wrong desicions u have made in ur lifting journey.
I've never been much of general heating and specific heating ... I know it's not the right thing to do....but I'm a big fan of your method of ´´workin up`` multiple sets 3 to 5 reps... up weight to the top set... example hack squats... 1 plate per side... 3 to 5 reps.. 2 plates...again.. 3 plates again.... 4 plates probably top set for my...6 to 8 reps....
thanks John!
Your like to dislike ratio is insane, everyone loves you lol
not everyone..haha
26 people are tendonitis advocates
How could you not love John? Some people just love to hate.
Can you make multiple videos on how to warm up with each muscle group!
Thank You! I'm Learning As I Go!💪☑️
Thank you so much great man
welcome!
I needed this. What percent of my 1rm for the warmups. Thanks big dog.
If your doing a push, pull, leg routine how do you suggest warming up for example when on a push day? Would you do a chest machine followed by a shoulder machine or would it warm up the chest and by the time shoulders are incorporated you should already be warm thus just feel the movement vs full warmup. Thanks
warm up with first exercise you are going to do
