Warming up for a route without easy lines to climb

Hey all I want to know what you would do in my situation. I found this awesome 5.11b sport line in a crag not 50 feet from the parking lot. I worked on it alot this past Saturday but didn't finish linking everything together, I'm excited to get back to it next week to hopefully redpoint it.

The problem is, there's no nice warmup routes there beyond a super sketchy 5.10c that makes me contemplate death at every clip. I don't want to have to run that one again to warm up, but there's nothing else there!

What's a good warmup to do beyond climbing easier stuff? Should I boulder the first moves a bit, do some pushups and stretch a ton first or something? What do you guys do when there's nothing easier to warm up on?

Get up early, do some nice light stretching, eat breakfast get limber and send it. Seriously, if there's nothing around just attempting to climb it will warm you up.

Could you go bolt to bolt on the project and warm up that way? Skip the cruxes if you need to keep the difficulty lower for your warm up.

Some folks around here will warm up at the gym before going to a crag with all hard routes.

Maybe traversing the base?
