The easiest would be a chromatic scale up and down the neck.

There are different warm up exercises from different players. The one by John Petrucci is very good. It helped me a lot after viewing it.

Here's a warm up exercise by Joe Satriani,

Try finding Dave Mustaine or Adrian Smith lessons on youtube if you want more patterns on warming up.

I don't warm up too
I just need people to jam with me then I'll feel happy and my fingers will fly haha and I'll be in cloud 9

To me, warming up before you play is the same when you warm up before exercising.
