Want to train more efficiently? Supersets could be the answer. Here’s everything you need to know about the strength training technique…
Supersets are a style of training that you may have used before — whether you knew it or not. Frequently featured in workout programmes (including those within the Strong Women Training Club) as well as in classes and on Instagram workout videos, they’re a popular technique with huge benefits.
“I think supersets are brilliant,” says Tess Glynne-Jones, strength coach and head trainer at Marchon. “You’ll see supersets everywhere because they keep your workload constant and consistent.”
Don’t just jump in without a second thought though. As with everything you do in your workouts, it’s important to check whether the tool is actually aligned with your goals.
