Effective Body Workouts: Superset Training

This method is primarily intended to save time. As it is an intense workout, it keeps the heart rate elevated, resulting in greater calorie burning in the same period than if you were doing a regular workout.

You will be getting the best of both worlds: strength and endurance at the same time.

There are different types of supersets. There are two main types: a) for antagonistic muscle groups. A perfect example would be biceps curl plus triceps extension.

While the biceps are being worked, the triceps are resting, which allows the muscle to recover. b) And the supersets for the same muscle group, where we can mention squats plus leg extensions, whose objective will be to work the same muscle from different angles and thus achieve greater muscle development.

In both cases, supersets, like any training method, can be applied by assigning one day to the upper body and the next to the lower body and choosing two or three muscles a day. It would be as follows:

• -Monday: biceps + shoulders
• -Tuesday: quads + glutes
• -Wednesday: triceps + back
• -Thursday: hamstrings + glutes
• -Friday: chest + abs

Additionally, it is essential to have a diet plan tailored to the final goal, whether it is fat loss, muscle mass gain, or general improvement of well-being. All aspects are necessary and inseparable to achieve improved physical condition.

When we talk about nutrition, we must remember the principle of bio-individuality: each body is unique. However, in general terms, we can take into account the following tips to complement physical training:

• -Include proteins in all meals
• -Reduce consumption of processed products
• -Include high-fiber carbohydrates
• -Increase the intake of micronutrients that we can find in fruits and vegetables
• -Drink enough water
• -Rest
