As you start putting together your workout program it is best arrange your exercises starting with the largest muscle groups (like your legs, back) follow up those exercises with smaller muscle groups such as (arms, abs). Once you have your muscle groups order down, start doing compound movements, using more than one joint (squat + overhead press) and isolation moves using only one joint (like a leg curl or extension); compound moves go before isolation moves.
WHY???? The ACSM says that this method allows for you to perform more intense exercises before your neuromuscular system is fatigued.
Hope this exercise tip comes in handy when putting together your routineJ
