Tuesday November 22, 2011

Today is my first day back from a long weekend. Since my muscles are fully rested and recovered from last week I decided to do Supersets today. Supersets are doing reps and sets of 2 different exercises back to back with no rest. I found this workout on www.Musclepharm.com and I have to say it was tough.

Superset 1
Wide Grip Pull-ups        5x Failure
Flat Bench Press             5x12

Superset 2
Incline Dumbbells         5x12
Seated Row                    5x12

Superset 3
Wide Grip Pull-ups        5x Failure
Chest Fly (Dumbbells)  5x12

Single Dumbbell Pull over across Bench  5x12

I did not use my max weight for every set because I would never last all 12 reps for the 5 sets. I've heard of supersets before but this is my first time ever doing supersets. It was intense and my muscles are definitely sore. I recommend trying this workout and remember to bump the amount of weight down and I guarantee you will feel the results. Tomorrow is Legs!
