Warm-up for Pause and Tempo Squats

Training Q&A [Moderated]
1

For pause and tempo squats, during the warm-up sets, do I use pause and tempo squats, or normal squats?

I’m guessing the answer is use pause and tempo squat for warm-up sets. This way I can gauge RPE better vs using normal squat.

Hi John,
You are correct, it is generally best to work up with the movement variation that you are actually training at that time.
