Supersets?

[Mike Tuvre USA]

How many SS's do you do for a bodypart? I'm finding that I can only do 2 SS's (4 sets total), and I'm spent on that BP. Seem normal? Thanks

do you supersets with different body parts, either upper/lower or antagonistic muscle groups (ie bench/row, pull up/shoulder press, leg press/deadlift)

I disagree. If you want to save time, yes, but if you want to use the SS to totally shock and " destroy " the muscle group, I feel you need to SS the same muscle group.

I think 2 SS per muscle group is fine. Most people do too many sets anyway.

I havn't tried antagonistic sets. Just the same muscle so far.

ah yes....because shocking and "destroying" the muscle group is the best way to see results.

i have a question what exactly are supersets. Ive heard it alot before but i never understood what they were and what they were good for.

dont do supersets using the same muscle unless your goal is muscular endurance

Pat, stop being such a fuckin amateur.

jeez, don't you know you have to hydrogen bomb your muscles or else your wasting your time...seems like they'll let anyone be a mod nowadays.

When I've done supersets in the past I only implemented a few sets on a body part, like when I did P-RR-S. Maybe your GPP just sucks?
