What makes supersetting different from regular sets?

There are a couple different things that make a superset workout routine different from a regular set workout routine.  Supersetting will increase your lactic acidproduction.  Lactic acid helps to boost your level of growth hormone which will assist in fat loss and muscle building.

Supersets are also very time efficient.  As mentioned in the earlier post, if you don’t have a great amount of time to workout, do a superset routine!  You won’t waste any time getting in an excellent workout.  They will definitely get you out of the gym faster without sacrificing your workout.  The different types of supersetting workout routines will activate all different kinds of muscle fibers.

To really increase your muscular strength, size, and endurance, you must hit all of the muscle fibers.  Supersetting will definitely do just that!  When it comes to building muscle, you must overload the muscle.  Typically to overload people just increase the amount of weight they are lifting.  While this is a good method, supersetting can create that overload without having to lift heavy.

This makes it good for people who want to increase their strength but aren’t quite at the heavy lifting level.  A lot of people think that you need to lift heavy to make any progress…that’s not true!  Supersetting doesn’t require you to lift heavy but you will still overload the muscle.
