pre exhaust sounds good in theory, working the primary muscle before the compound exercise so that it is the muscle that reaches failure first and so gets hit hardest however i've never found it that effective in practise as it reduces the amount of weight used in the main exercise and i'm a firm believer in training as heavy as possible for the best gains.
