Super Set Workout Routine for Women

The following routine is meant to help boost intensity levels by decreasing the amount of rest periods in between sets. This will help increase metabolic rate and force your body to work a little harder. The result is better muscle tone.

This is an intermediate level workout so please be advised, its a tough workout so if you are a beginner to weight training, please try the beginner course first.

For those of you who don't know what a super set is, it's basically a system of exercises that you perform together with little to no rest in between sets. Traditional sets allows a certain amount of time (IE: 30, 60, 90 seconds) to rest in between sets. Supersets takes this rest time away. For example, lets say you want to superset the bench press and lat machine pulldown. To perform one super set, you would first perform one set of bench press' and with no rest, immediately perform a set of lat machine pull downs. This would be considered one superset.

The main benefit to supersets is adding an increased element of intensity to your program. The harder you force your body to work, the more results you can expect. This is what supersets do, they force your body to work extra hard.

Important notes about the workout:

There you have it. A super set workout that will greatly boost intensity levels which will add up to an increase in muscle tone. There may be some exercises such as the dumbbell lunge which may seem strange if you've never done them before. I suggest trying to do the exercise without dumbbells if you've never done them before. In fact, if there are some exercises here that you've never done, I strongly suggest you mimick peforming them without any weight. Follow the video in the exercises and when you are comfortable, try using weight.

Also, if you have a hard time doing the prescribed repetitions, start at a lower repetition. Work your way up to the listed repetitions.

Good luck and all the best,
