Understanding Supersets in Lyfta

Supersets are a powerful way to streamline your workouts and push your muscles harder. In Lyfta, a superset groups exercises that you perform back-to-back without a break in between. Think of them as mini-circuits of 2 or more exercises.

Why use Supersets?

1. Maximize your time: Supersets reduce downtime by letting one muscle group recover while you work another.
2. Intense workouts: Quickly fatigue a specific muscle group by targeting it with multiple exercises in a row.
3. Add variety: Break up the monotony of your routine with a burst of different movements.

How Supersets look in Lyfta

Exercises in a superset are marked with a vertical line on the left side, clearly showing they're linked together. Use the "Next" button to seamlessly jump between sets within your superset.
