I’ve been doing supersets for over 20 years. The biggest challenge will always be how busy your gym is when you train. Unfortunately most people get stumped when the machine or exercise they are supposed to be doing is busy. When I plan for clients online I plan for supersets based on the layout of their gym. Also, you must have alternatives for each exercise. This is definitely a challenge if your knowledge is not great on exercise selection.

@@vahidbehravan Hehe, respect. I was even later to the party just started around 30. Tried low/high volume, low/high intensity. Also on a sedentary job. What i noticed finally gave me the most progress is doing 1 or 2 warmup sets then hitting my max weight and try to get a PR of 16 reps, if i cant i'l just myo rep set it to failure, then drop weight and repeat a few times. For some reason i can do this every 2-3 days and progress almost every single time. It gives me more volume, intensity and higher weight over time than anything i did before. Only downside is i feel beat up and need a deload after a month or so. But seeing all that progress a week off is nice. If you ever plateau give it a shot, more volume/intensity/weight is the only thing bro's/science agree upon. I have not tried antagonist supersets so far...

Antagonist supersets save you a ton of time, but specially leg days you need a little more rest in between; also the pump/burn on arm days takes some time getting used to, but hey, we all love to torture ourselves! I probably had the best gains when I had the most sleep and I barely get enough these days (job, life, kid), at least for me creatine helps with recovery; I’ve always trained to failure but since I trained alone I avoided certain exercises where without a spotter hitting failure could’ve been dangerous; now I train with a smart machine called “Speediance” which eliminates risk of injury.

Great information. Charles Poliquin was a great proponent of super sets.

This has been my methodology for years now, I do this for compound movements as well as isolation movements. When I do compounds I typically take a minute of rest before starting the next exercise to catch my breath, it's actually a bit challenging when you're going heavy with these, but for isolations I go one after another with no break between, typically triceps vs biceps. It's the only way I can manage to get a full workout in with the time I have, I do them after the kids finally go to bed, so I don't have a lot of time before I have to go to bed myself.

I kind of started doing this just instinctually in my garage gym because it's very doable when alone with no shared equipment. Good luck doing this in a crowded public gym! It definitely is more time efficient, with less boring rest periods. Although, I do need to get a second barbell to really do this properly; switching between bench press and barbell rows certainly isn't the most time efficient with only one bar. (Yes I do barbell rows because I like them and the hip hinged bracing training they yield that carries over to my RDLs/deads.) This can also be a very fun (and exhausting if you're not conditioned for it) way to do calisthenics workouts. Example: going from pullups/inverted rows straight into dips/decline deficit pushups with minimal rest times.

Supersets are a great reason to have a home gym. Another hack, if you do, is breaking the workout into multiple sessions. I do my superset workouts in two 20-minute sessions rather than one forty. The sessions are sometimes hours apart. The rest between the two sessions lowers the systemic load and makes the higher intensity of supersets tolerable.

Also, you can do mini circuit too even if there is some overlap: Leg Extensions, Leg Curls, Hip Hinge Machine, Calf Raise Machine. The fatigue from the leg curls probably hampers the hip hinge, making it harder on glutes and low back. But who cares? Then, doing a standing calf raise machine uses a little quad, but it doesn't kill your next leg extension after some longer rest. If anything, your whole lower chain gets oiled up for really heavy and hard work. Get out in 35 minutes.

I train in superset for the last two years, initially i did like the study, supersetting lower body, then upper body, then arms and shoulder in a triset. In the past year or so i did all my workout (3x week) with supersetting one leg exercise with one upper body exercise (usually quads and back - hams and chest) and supersetting biceps and triceps alternating one session biceps then triceps and other session triceps then biceps, same for quads and back and hams and chest, one day i do quads and back first, the other hams and chest and rotate aswell chest and hams and back and quads. So far i can say if your conditioning sucks is harder, if your cardio is properly trained you can reduce alot the time for workout and do anything you want after :D. I Think is better split in lower and upper body because you remove local fatigue (if i do back is hard for me go harder on a chest exercise, is easier go hard on a leg exercise), is tough on your cardiovascular system tho, i'm pretty conditioned, you should approce this metod carefully, i feel to suggest if you heartrate is below 125-130 bpm after one set you can superset, expect your heartrate to go at least 150-160 bpm, in my opinion is a pretty good indicator if i did an intense enough set, if i stay below 150 after a superset the set is not challenging enough and you need to raise something, load if it doesnt compromise your tecnique, tempo or reps.

Supersets are so underrated for getting in more volume. When I superset, the time just flies. You get into the groove and just go. For instance, whenever I superset a push exercise with pull ups, the effort and time flies so fast that I'm at the 5th round without even realizing it. Obviously, I'm thinking every time before each set to be very close to failure but avoid failure and thinking during the exercise itself trying to gauging my rep speed dropping off, but the time and effort just goes in the background and you end up not thinking about.

Exercise selection is also a big issue, one of the exercise combinations I found that worked well with this was an ez-bar skullcrusher into ez bar curls (arms in front of torso), ideal would be if you had a preacher setup but you're already taking up a bench for the skullcrushers, pull ups+ dips/push ups I can also see working well but try getting a free leg extension and leg curl machine at the same time

I'm a newbie, less than a year experience. I workout at home and I have a 2x3 power rack with cable attachments, landmine attachment etc. ,and I have a barbell and an ajustable bench, but no dumbbells. I want to give supersets a try, anyone have any suggestion on exercises, say if I wanna do chest and back | shoulders and arms etc.? My current split is push, pull, shoulders, arms, legs M 44, 5'11 180 lbs

Hey Dr. Milo, been following your page for a while now watching videos here and there, generally and genuinely really like the content and appreciate the work you put into things. Regarding myoadapt I'd surely be interested but marketing aside how can you know its the best app out there when its not out, will there not be some bugs and such upon launch? Anyways, will be following all the progress and looking forward to upcoming videos!

I wonder what the ratio is for mayo reps. If you need 20-40 normal sets for max. hypotrophy, what would be the amount of mayo reps to achieve the same in less time? THAT would be a interesting study for busy ppl.
