Multi-Joint Exercise Protocol

Meaning

A Multi-Joint Exercise Protocol is a systematic training regimen centered around movements that involve simultaneous action at two or more major joints, such as squats, deadlifts, or overhead presses. These complex, foundational movements engage large muscle masses and demand a high degree of intermuscular and intramuscular coordination. Clinically, these protocols are considered superior for maximizing systemic hormonal responses and promoting significant, functional strength and bone density adaptations. They are the most efficient means of imposing a systemic stressor.
