My question is can i start with weighted pull-ups and end with bench? I feel everyone starts with bench is this the case? benchpress 3x8 squat 3x8 weighted chin-ups abs

place the squats first. coz by the time u finish off the 3 sets, ur body will be fully warmed up for the next exercise.

then u do the bench press since ur shoulders are gonna be fresh and will be able to support the bar over ur chest. [try doing bench after OHPs and u ll what i mean]. after bench it s the OHPs to inflict max poundage on the delts and u finish off with back/lats workout and finally isolations.

Anbe Sivam. Period.
