Rather than just performing a generic 5-10 minute warmup, or effortless dynamic stretches. I would recommend a warm-up that works all main muscle groups, raises the heart rate, lubricates the joints and prepares the body for more intense activity.
Here's an example:
10 reps of:
- Push-Ups
- Air Squat
- Sit-up
- Back Extension
- Walking Lunges
- Pull-ups
- Bodyweight (Inverted) Rows
- Dips
This is what I tend to use prior to most workouts.
