What's a Super-Set?

A super-set is when you do 2 or more sets immediately after one another. These exercises can be for the same muscle group or different muscle groups. My favorite super-sets involve using the same muscle groups in different ways. For example, you could do a bench press for chest and arm strength followed immediately by a 1-arm press for stabilization. Another one of my favorites is squats followed immediately by explosive jumps. I use super-sets in my workouts whenever I get the chance!
