Warmup sets

Do you warm up for each exercise? i.e. 2 sets of low weight or no weight each for Squats, bench press and Pendlay Rows or just start with a couple of warm up sets for squat in the beginning and move along?

Now I'm up to near-failure weights in set 3, I do warmsup sets on everything. Currently it's something like 10lbs & 20lbs for bench, OP & Pendlay (worksets all around 30lbs), and 30lbs & 40lbs for squats (work set around 50lbs). Last DL I did 30kg & 40kg then a work set of 45kg. No idea if it's "right" but it seems to work.0

I do warm-up sets for everything. I do 1-2 weighted warm-up sets depending on the exercise, and many air squats before I start.0

I used to do more warmups for squats and much less for other things - so maybe just 1-2 sets for the other stuff but 2-3 or 4 for squats.0
