It's always best to warm-up to a max-effort: pyramid-up the rack so-to-speak, but keep reps low on each set: 3-5r 1st set, 1-3r each set thereafter, else you can become too worn out to eventually do a near-1-rep-max set safely. Also, have spotters at the ready when using heavy-weights &/or when getting tired.
