Benefits of Starting with LEGS!

Doing legs at the beginning of your workout can have several benefits:

1. **Energy Levels**

Leg exercises, such as squats and lunges, require significant energy and effort. By tackling them at the start of your workout, you can perform them when your energy levels are highest, ensuring better form and effectiveness.

2. **Hormonal Response**

Compound leg movements can stimulate a greater hormonal response, including the release of testosterone and growth hormone. This can enhance overall muscle growth and fat loss.

3. **Engagement of Major Muscle Groups**

Leg workouts engage some of the largest muscle groups in the body, which can lead to a more significant calorie burn. Starting your workout with these exercises can help jumpstart your metabolism for the entire workout.

4. **Improved Performance**

Focusing on leg exercises first can contribute to better overall workout performance. Many upper body movements rely on core stability and strength from the legs, so warming them up adequately can enhance your overall strength and stability.

5. **Max Effectiveness & Decrease Risk of Injury**

If you do leg workouts after upper body exercises, you might find your legs fatigued, which can lead to compromised form and potentially increase the risk of injury. Doing legs first allows for maximum focus and effectiveness.
