workout supersets

[sharks1664]

a superset is where you pair two exercises back to back yes.....but whats the point in doing two different muscle groups in a set? i know you was saying it makes for a quicker session but whats the point if it doesnt benefit you? a susperset is basically to over exert your muscle as much as possible

i dont know about this workout, but ill give it a try

Good books 'Designing Resistance Training programs',& 'the essentials of strength training and conditioning, both by human kinetics!

Using these for my studies =)

[cowslayer84]

...look at below..

Both:

- very short rest, to allow lactic acid build up in the muscles, which allows muscle strength endurance over time

- typically 8-10Reps per set, but varies according to goal

havn't heard of supersets of upper body then lower, since usually thats known as a compound set, but it is straight after one another suppose could call it a super set, but not the normal super set!

[cowslayer84]

There are two types of Supersets:

1st The Antagonistic pair version: This is when you work on a particular muscle (Agonist) then its opposite muscle (Antagonist) So if you do your biceps, you immediately, if not very shortly, work on the triceps and repeat

2nd: Focussed muscle Group: 2+ exercises on a particular muscle, biceps you could do curls on dumbells with a neutral grip, then into bicep curls on a barbell with a supinated grip.

He is not the sharpest tool in the shed...

supper sets involve push-pull concept.

NOT LOWER BODY-UPPER BODY!

YOU'RE GIVING PEOPLE WRONG ADVICE!

[djcripplecrunk]

lol what a fag. why would you do lower and upper body supersets.. your supposed to do opposing muscle groups. ie. bicep curls then tricep curl

[knewok]

@djcripplecrunk theres more then one way to do a superset asshole do some research

[djcripplecrunk]

thank you but whats the point of doing a superset if your not going to get any muscle gains out of it...?

[knewok]

@djcripplecrunk your going to get muscleout of any workout you do it just might not be the bulk maybe its just to stay in shape or this could be a calorie burning superset.. a superset is like he said two combined excercises with no rest inbetween doesnt have to be both upper body. its called a staggard superset

[imsljr420]

i always thought supersets was when u workout the opposite muscle, like 4 example chest-back....bicep-tricep....­..quads-hams....shoulders-trap­s

[muzwahproductions]

it is.. its just called angotastic or something similar..

[JessopVTS]

thanks for the video & info. Appreciate it =]

[borhany1979]

i think that super set means working same muscle with other angle right after reaching failure from first exercise , like push ups or flys when u reah failure with chest press , this way u do called riot pump or type of cycle workout ,. corrcet me if im wrong please

[overheadstorage]

Those are called compound sets because you are compounding the stress on the muscle.

[weathered79]

ok how many push pull exercises in a workout should you do and how many times a week plus i do push ups every other day i was thinking about doing 1 superset every other day is that to much please respond i've been googling my ass off trying to find an answer

[borhany1979]

since u do lift ur body wight only , it depends on ur fitness level , a good bodybulder would do about 50rep ( devided into sets ) in the back day , along with other back exercises , i rocomand doing it once weekly with a high intesity back workout , i used to start my back day with 100 reps in about 20 minutes and it worked for me very well , i can even feel the wide back in the next 6 days of it

[borhany1979]

the best way is to bring and do all ur reps in the week to do it in one day , fight to do them all , and ull notice a great muscle respond in the next training day , then after a while return to ur normal 3 days per week , then go back and forth , till u reach ur goals, and dont forget the rest of ur body
