The #1 time-saving workout hack.

We all have those days when we need to squeeze in a workout and make every minute count. On those days, the most efficient way to train is with paired, non-overlapping supersets.

Here’s how:

Paired Supersets

Pick two movements that target different muscles. Classic examples include exercises for opposing movement patterns:

• Chest press and row

• Leg extension and leg curl

• Shoulder press and lat pulldown

But you can also pair completely unrelated movements, like:

• Calf raises with lateral raises

• Hip thrusts with upright rows

Save Time

Pair exercises you can do with the same equipment or in the same part of the gym:

• Two dumbbell exercises

• Two cable exercises

• Two body-weight exercises

Avoid Certain Exercises

Avoid exercises that wipe you out, like squats and deadlifts. They’re great exercises, but in this context, they’ll exhaust you too quickly and defeat the purpose of saving time.

Recovery

Take half a minute to recover between exercises, or at least enough time to catch your breath. This way, you’ll save time while still getting the most out of each set—the best of both worlds.

Example Workout

Here’s a quick example to illustrate:

1. Dumbbell Chest Press and Dumbbell Row - 3 sets of 12 reps each

2. Leg Extension and Leg Curl - 3 sets of 15 reps each

3. Shoulder Press and Lat Pulldown - 3 sets of 10 reps each

With this method, you’re maximizing efficiency and getting a full workout in less time. Perfect for those busy days!
