The order of the exercises in the cross-training program was warm-up, cardio, strength training, and flexibility. why do you think the exercises are ordered this way?

Answer:

The exercises in the cross-training program is ordered this way is because the body needs to warm up to maximize function when it's put into full motion. Cardio gets the heart pumping. Strength training after cardio is a great way to enhance your strength training routine. Your body is at max level of "readiness"to accept the challenge of strength training and your muscles are ready to go. After strength training is flexibility to help the muscles recover from the exercises it just endured.
