Can I do the exercises in a different order each time I do StrongLifts 5×5?
The exercise order isn’t random, it was chosen for a reason. • Squat first because it’s 1) the most important exercise 2) the hardest exercise • Overhead Press/Bench Press next to give your legs/lower back a break • Then Deadlifts which work your lower back/legs again like Squats (or Inverted Rows) • Next Push-ups/Chin-ups/Pull-ups to work upper-body again • And finally Reverse Crunches & Prone Iso Bridges for abs.Don’t change the order of exercises, it works best this way.
