jonezy -> do supersets really work??? (Apr. 27 2008 12:16:01)
any of you guys used supersets (bi's/tri's) with any decent results??? my arms are a bit stubborn to grow just wondered whether to continue with the good old progressive overload on the heavy compounds or to give these a shot??? also how often would you do these?? rest periods/ reps/sets e.t.c?? would be interesting to hear who these have/haven't worked for?? as i hear the extreme pump is meant to stretch the muscle fascia or something??? or i could just be talking crap!!! lol!!

imo they are useful if you like high volume as it allows more sets in a short time without living in the gym as for facia stretching, i try to do a pumping exercise purely for the pump after i work most muscle groups.... ie machine flies light and squeezed about 45 seconds rest purely for that reason however i am skeptical to its benefits....
