Warm-Up Sets

Warm-up sets are sets you perform at low weight prior to your work sets. Performing warm-up sets allows your body to gradually prepare for your work sets by loosening up the joints and increasing heart rate and blood circulation which increases blood flow to the muscles. This will ultimately reduce the risk of injury.

With Fitbod, you get a recommended weight scheme that builds up to your working weight for any exercise.
