Does exercise order matter?
I get this all the time from clients.
They're like "Hey, you sent me the list and I'm supposed to do this, and then this, and then this, but can I do it backwards? What if the gym is packed?"
At the end of the day, do your best. If the gym is packed and you can only go in the order that you can, do so.
But if you're asking what is optimal, following the exercises in the order listed is best.
For example, on your back day, you're probably going to have in your program a lat pullover, where you're doing an isolation movement to get your lats warmed up.
This isn't to grow you into the biggest, strongest, leanest, sexiest human alive.
It's to allow your mind-muscle connection to get with your lats, get some blood flow in there, and then be better able to perform on your next exercises more safely.
So exercise order does matter. Do your best. If you can, follow it the way I've listed it out.
Question for this group: do you perform your compounds or isolation movements first?
