Two exercises performed consecutively with little or no rest between them before a longer rest.
Why Superset matters
Supersets can save time and increase local demand, especially when exercises use different muscle groups.
A practical example
Pairing a chest press with a row, then resting before repeating both exercises.
Common mistake
Pairing two technically demanding heavy lifts when fatigue makes performance unsafe.
Training and nutrition terms describe general principles. The right exercise, intensity or food target still depends on your experience, health, goals and schedule.
Personalised coaching
Apply the principle to your own training.
A definition is useful, but your programme still needs to match your experience, schedule, recovery and goals.
