warming up shoulders

[jadakris31]

how do you guys warm up your shoulders (cuffs) before chest or .. shoulder day?... i think i need to warm mine up better...

I take a 5lb plate or dumbbell and swing my arms (one at a time) in a full circular motion about 20 times for 2 sets, and of course start out with light weight.

i just do my normal shoulder exercises with a low weight

I also do the windmills, as they have been named on this site, with a 5lb plate. I do them on any day that I am working upper body, each arm 20 forward/20 reverse. warms me up a bit and it is just part of my routine

A couple of sets of windmills in between two light sets of the exercise in question..

I do windmill type things with a light plate like many have already said. I find it helps me a lot on flat bench and shoulder press to loosen up.

I do the "windmills" like everyone else, except I also bend over and draw circles with it below me. Seems to help.
