Common question: When is the best time to do core exercises? At the beginning or end of your workout?

A: It depends on the goal of your workout.

• If sculpting a strong core is your top priority, train it first, when you are freshest.
• If you have another goal – like doing intense athletic drills or lifting heavy weights – do your core exercises at the end of your workout.
  That way your core muscles are ready, willing, and able to support your body through your entire workout – and are not prefatigued by other exercises.
• Tip: Treat your abs/core just like every other muscle group and give it plenty of rest between sessions – there’s no need to work those muscles every day.
