Is it safe to run on leg day if I run first? (self.fitness)

I usually do elliptical or cycle on these days since they're low impact, but I just prefer running. It's quicker.

Especially for legs I would always do cardio after hitting legs especially if squatting. Your legs could be more fatigued after running and can not lift as much as you think and get injured. Unless you are used to it.

This works the same the other way around. Your legs will be tired from squatting which hinders running performance. It’s a choice.
