As title, ive been lifting my dumbells for years on and off and every time i use them i just do a few reps on each arm first and then rest a minute, then i carry on doing my different exercises.

Should i be doing more to warm up or will the above suffice?

always warm up no matter what exercise you do

But what does that consist of? whats the best way of doing it?

5/10 mins light cardio to get the blood pumping then if doing weights a coulple of sets of light weight reps to stretch the muscle and again get the blood flowing so you dont injure yourself,also a warm down is just as important

I always do one warm up set of approx half the weight of my first proper set. Nice and controlled. I must admit o have every intention of doing some light cardio before weights but often it is overlooked due to time etc.
