I always start with legs to get the entire nervous system fired up. Studies show they are the highest anabolic and catecholamine response to get you fired up for your next exercises, and they will make you stronger on the upper body movements. They indirectly help the other muscles as well as your entire body grow faster.
Full body works well for me. I do 4x per week, and after 2 or 3 weeks, I realized it also exercised my adaptation. I’m now very used to it. One key is to spread the work out across the week, and always alternate the body part you lead with. Don’t always begin your workout with the same muscle group.
The high frequency and specificity of minimalist high intensity full body routine has produced the most lean and dense muscle of my whole life. Im doing better at 37 then I ever have.
I've been on full body for a while, just recently started to really fine tune my workouts. 2 days a week, I'm in the gym for a total of ~60-90 minutes, and then I sprinkle in some cardio between rest days. Works well, very taxing on CNS, so to those who want to try: make sure you're eating and resting properly to support these workouts!
Definitely looking to try this out. Should I warm up before every exercise I do or just get straight into it? Just wanna make sure I’m doing things right

progressive overload: try in your fullbody workout add weight in each sets. Be sure take enough rest between sets.
And keep it in perspective because one illness can take hold of that away.
Is it good for 3 days a week
How heavy are you lifting?
I love full body workout
I was hoping this was in the description box
Only works for weak beginners. This program doesn't give much stimulus if you're an advanced lifter.

There's definitely some truth behind these workouts. I know from experience 👍
wow a fitness instructor actually gave useful information without trying to get me to pay for it

I love this idea! Calisthenics version: All movements for upper body require elevating the feet to or above the level of the hands at rest.
