True for a year or two, but after that your warm up sets get so heavy that you’ll need at least 10 minutes to get up to your working sets.

I've never warmed up before. I'm not a super advanced athlete, but I can put 315 on the bench and I don't weigh very much.
Theres not really much documented benefit of warming up for injury prevention as far as i know. I think it improves performance, but its definitely an area where much time can be saved.
