If I drove to the gym, I walk for 10 minutes. Otherwise I bike the 2 miles or so to the gym. Perfect warm-up!

Bike for 3-4 minutes, stretch, then a warmup set for whatever excercise I'm doing that night. That's it.

if you are training in the am I would definetly do 10 min or so to get the blood pumping and to be a little more awake before slinging weights around.

but at night, unless training legs I would go right to a warm up set for the first target muscle.

I do betwen 10-20 minutes on an elliptical training machine to warm up.
