1 Beginners neednât work their way as high up the warm up sequence (to 95 percent of the working weight) as more experienced lifters.  Warm up sets should be tailored to intensity. For example, a session of 4 sets of squats for 6 repetitions entails a heavier working weight than 3 sets of 12 repetitions. Adjust accordingly.
The American College of Sports Medicine, or ACSM, suggests beginners lift weights up to three times per week with at least one full day of rest between workouts. This general recommendation is adequate for the average weightlifter who does a 30 to 45 minute full-body weightlifting workout three times per week.
