5 x 5's

[witkowsd]

Does it matter what exercise you pick to do the 5 x 5's?

Definitely. Heaviest, compound exercises first. For example, for back ...

Deadlifts first, then rows and chins

or

Incline bench first, then flat DB presses and dips.

Run a search and also check out needsize's sticky at the top of the board.

Pick a compound lift for each muscle group and stick with it. Always do it first. You can switch your accessory movements each workout however.
