My warmups are just sets with less weight until I get to the working weight. Takes less time than a dedicated warmup routine and you get to practice the lifts. I take my time slowly going up in weight for the first lift of the session and the remaining ones usually only need one or two warmup sets. Being doing this for a couple of years, works great for me.
