What should I do first at the gym – strength training or cardio?

Hi Kelli,
I agree with Michael, it depends on the goal of the workout. If strength gains are the goal, the strength overload should be done before cardio. Just be sure to do a 3-5 minute large muscle, rhythmic warm-up (jogging on treadmill, stationary cycling) prior to the strength overload to prepare the fascia, especially if it will be failure strength exercises.
Take care.
