228: Do Pre-Exhaust Techniques Build More Muscle?

Although arguably less popular these days, many seeking muscular hypertrophy still employ the pre-exhaust tactic of somewhat counterintuitive exercise order, doing smaller isolation movements before larger compound multi-joint movements. Is this a smart way to train or does it depend on the person? The study’s scientific data and anecdotal data are discussed.
