Muscle Defining Superset Shocker For Chest And Triceps

These workouts follow a superset protocol, where you perform two different exercises back-to-back. It’s an efficient way of stimulating the working muscles to grow bigger. This workout comprises two chest-based moves, two triceps-focused moves, straight sets of cable cross-overs to hit the middle part of your chest and, to finish, some intensive cardio.

For the supersets, complete all the reps of exercise A then move straight on to exercise B without resting.
