Mark and Lauren have added helpful videos inside the app. These can be found in the Education Hub under Featured.
Videos available in the Education Hub:
Exercise Specific Warm Ups
Intro to Lower Body Warm Ups — General & Specific
Intro to Upper Body Warm Ups — General & Specific
These videos walk you through how to warm up properly and how to approach your sets so you’re lifting safely and effectively.
How warm‑ups and working sets work:
Mark and Lauren prescribe your working sets, and the goal is to use ramp‑up sets (your warm‑up sets) to gradually build up to your challenging working weight. Only once you reach that challenging weight do your actual working sets begin.
Do I need to record warm‑up sets?
No — you only need to record your working sets. Warm‑up sets are just to help you build up safely and don’t need to be logged.
Do I need warm‑up sets for every exercise?
Warm‑up sets are mainly needed for your main lifts (e.g., squats, deadlifts, bench). You don’t need to perform warm‑up sets for every exercise.
