A superset is a form of exercise in which you perform two different exercises back-to-back with little rest in between. The two exercises used in a superset can be for the same muscle group or opposing muscle groups. For example, you can work your chest and then your back through two different exercises with no rest in between. Supersets are frequently used to boost the aerobic intensity of your regular lifting program and reduce the total time you need for each workout. They can help you get more done in the gym and start the fast track to reaching your fitness goals. Supersets are a great way to bring cardiovascular work into your resistance training. However, it is important to note that performing supersets for strength requires maximum effort and is really only recommended for advanced trainees.
