Working sets are just that.Warm up sets never count.So when you see the number of sets listed in a program,they are woking sets.Usually an * lets you know those are warm up sets.

If one of your questions is how to warm up with a certain #of reps...I would say it is about the same regardless...personally I like to warm up on a bike for ~5mins...
Then do a super set or two to get the blood flowing...
Im just looking over your excercises...how long do you usually spend in the gym...?

Now if you are running a program like above,and brought every set to absolute failure,chances are you'd over train,or injure yourself.I'd bring the last set in each exercise (in the above program) to absolute failure.
