Always start with some push-ups to get the blood going. From there my first exercise with weights varies.

I usually warm-up, proceeded by a power exercise using 4 sets, with 6-10 reps. The rest of my workout is slow and controlled presses and isolation movements. It has been working well thus far.

I change it up week by week. One week I'll start with incline db. The next week I'll start with decline db.
