FUNK’S SUPERSET WEEK

As I've mentioned time and time again, the key to constant muscle growth and fat burn is continually shocking your body with different workouts and principles.

Supersetting is a fantastic way to keep your gym visits short and sweet.

There are different ways you can superset.

1. You can alternate exercises from two opposing muscle groups with little rest in between. Biceps and Triceps (SEE VIDEO BELOW FOR SAMPLE EXERCISE), Quads and Hamstrings or your Chest and Back

2. You can superset two exercises from the same muscle group with little rest in between. Biceps – Standing Barbell Curl and Concentration Curls

3. You can superset two exercises that work completely different muscle groups with little rest in between. Biceps and chest for example.

Below is my superset week that I will perform on a 5 day split once in a while to change up the flow. I use all 3 superset principles. Even my clients will use this as one of their 8 week workouts performed during my body transformation program.

Workout Tips
· Perform the below workouts 2 weeks straight
· Increase the weight from set to set and week to week
· Rest 30-45 seconds between sets
· Be intense and get the most of every minute in the gym
· Add cardio, abs and a healthy diet and nutrition plan to maximize muscle growth and fat burn
