In the morning, this ^

During the day, I just turn it on and go. I try to keep the revs down whenever I do this, but honestly, a good 1st to 2nd pull taking both gears to 4K RPMs does a fantastic job of getting everything up to temp for me

I'm rarely dealing with scenarios colder than 40 F in Texas as the car is garaged
