Parallel Coaching - Personal Trainer Courses's video: How to instruct a compound superset as a personaltrainer

What is a Compound Superset? A Compound Superset is a resistance training system. It features two multi joint exercises back to back on the same MUSCLE, with no rest in between. 🙌This creates double the amount of overload on one muscle, as you are reaching overload on the first exercise, before moving onto another exercise (that targets the same muscle) without any rest. Usually the second exercise has a slightly different angle on the muscle fibres which allows for maximal recruitment across the whole superset. for example: 🦵QUADRICEPS: 10 reps Squat followed by 10 reps Alternate Lunge, each set to overload and no rest in between 💪PECTORALIS MAJOR: 12 reps Bench Press followed by 12 reps Press Up, each set to overload and no rest in between 👉Key Note: Ensure that the exercises work the same muscle, rather than focusing on an area of body or muscle group. 👉Also make sure both exercises are compound (multi joint) like the examples above, or that both exercises are isolation (single joint) rather than combining them. If you combine isolation and compound exercises, you would have a different training system called a pre or post exhaust. 📚Learn more about supersets on todays blog https://parallelcoaching.co.uk/what-is-a-superset-training-system 👇Drop a comment below with an example of a compound superset...
