warm up to prevent injury

What is the best way to warm up my rotator cuffs and hips flexors.Basic rotation enough? Or common cable and dumbell lying raises(external/internal rotation) good enough?

For rotator cuffs (I have an old r/c injury myself) Take a 5lb plate in your hand and 'windmill' it slowly until you feel warm and loose. Repeat on other side

My warm-up is a 6 overhead squats, 6 one-arm clean and bent press, and 6 push-ups. I do this twice before my work sets. Works pretty well.
