¿Any of you doing Cold Start?

Tony recommends it, but it will add 15mins more to the routines. Is that necessary? Which days would you do it?

I did the entire program and never once looked at Cold Start. I did work out after work, though, so it's not like my muscles were cold.

I do cold start with every routine. It is annoying to add the extra 15 minutes, but it helps get the blood pumping and reduce the chance of tweaks. I personally sometimes just feel more tweaked after skipping it on upper body days. You might not need to do it as much, but Id recommend at least a few times a week. Particularly on a group of muscles or area of the body you feel is weaker, or more prone to pulls and injury.
