Introduction and Purpose: Every physical activity requires preparation for maximum performance. Thus, the aim of this study was to determine what type of warm-up exercise is more efficient to perform the maximum strength (1RM). Methods: The study included 10 males with an average age between 25-35 years. We used four different types of warm-up exercise: specific, organic, and unheated static stretching. The maximum strength was measured using two exercises on resistance training machines: bench press and leg press 45. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics (mean and standard deviation). To compare the different types of warm-up exercise on the 1RM test was used paired t test in order to always be the same individuals. All analyzes were performed using SPSS for Windows 20.0, and the significance level was 5%. Results and discussion: The results showed that for the bench press, the specific warm-up exercise was the most effective, while in the leg press 45 organic warm-up exercise was what showed better efficacy. On the other hand, the failure to carry out preheating showed the lower efficiency of the enforcement of the two proposed exercises. Conclusion: We concluded that there was an influence on the strength of performance in accordance with the warm-up exercise performed.
