Supersets: love ’em or leave ’em? 🏋️‍♀️

Let’s talk about it—because whether you’re a fan or not, there’s a way to make them work for you.

Here’s how I like to use supersets in my training:

1️⃣ Pairing muscles that don’t overlap.

Think leg extensions + dumbbell lateral raises or bicep curls + calf raises. You’ll save time without sacrificing strength! I usually use this combo toward the end of my workouts when I’m looking to wrap things up efficiently.

2️⃣ Pairing big muscle groups.

Ready to get your heart rate up? 🔥 Bench press + rows or hack squats + RDLs are not for the faint of heart. This approach challenges your conditioning and your energy systems in a big way. (Warning: it’s brutal—but in the best way!)

3️⃣ Pairing the same muscle group with different ranges.

This one’s a time-saver and a killer. Think barbell hip thrusts + glute-biased leg press, or chest flys + dumbbell bench press. The catch? It’s taxing, so you’ll likely need fewer total sets for that muscle group.

Your turn! 👉 Do you use supersets in your training? If so, which type is your favorite? Or, if you’re not a fan, tell me why! Let’s chat about it in the comments! ⬇️
