hogg, you FINISH with flies? I'm wondering if anyone
else prefers to start with them for pre-exaustion of the
chest, or if you have any opinions on how much worth is
in this. Thanks alot

if pre-exhausting, then yes, you would do them then.
If you are using a pressing movement with the
intentions of forcing maximum MU recruitment and
protein degradation through the pressing movement,
then you would use a suitable load, not a reduced load
via pre-exhaustion. Make sense? If your business is to
stress your pectoralis with a pressing movement, then
you load the pressing movement. If you are
pre-exhausting the pecs and trying to bring about
total saturation such that the anterior deltoids and
triceps are called to pick up the slack after the pecs
fail, then you go that route. Not everyone uses
pre-exhaustion and those who do might not use it on
every single movement. Frankly, I would never do leg
extensions before squatting....I'd rather squat some
weight and get my thing on with the movement. However,
I have used pre-exhaustion on flat bench with
dumbbells because, since my pec tear, I cant put the
heavy loads on my newly-formed pec tendon.
Pre-exhaustion has its place but I dont consider it a
staple part of daily training.

Just wanted to comment that the recommended rep interval in the
repeated and submaximal effort methods was 5 to 7 and 10 to 12.
Also, I wanted to clarify something, when I spoke of MU
recruitment, we were discussing the process of developing
strength. Hypertrophy was the result of protein degradation in
the muscle.
Though this book that I have mentioned can be rather dry at
times, it is very informative...much like all of the other books
on the johnsmith reading list.

Hogg, I don't suppose you can list some excellent books from
the John Smith Library of Training for us uneducated folks.
Thanks.
