Double Supersets for Chest - Ace Corona - 06-11-2025
I’ve already experimented with doing double supersets for shoulders, today I tried doing them for chest.
I do a set of dumbbell floor press, then a set of dumbbell Flyes, then another set of floor press, and a second set of Flyes. That’s four total sets without resting.
Rest three minutes then do it again!

This serves two purposes:
1) it saves time, I get a lot more done in a shorter span of time.
2) it ensures that I complete two movements, pressing and Flyes. Sometimes, if I did presses first, I might decide to skip Flyes, and they’re both important and shouldn’t be skipped.

I was looking through some JayMail from bodybuilder Jay Cutler, and in one of them he recommended not to do giant sets, where you do 3, 4, or 5 sets in a row without stopping, because it is harder in your joints than your muscles.

I agree with that, good thing I was reading my JayMail that day. I’m going to switch to doing supersets for shoulders, but not giant sets.

I was going through some old JayMail from bodybuilder Jay Cutler, and one piece of advice really stood out—he recommended avoiding giant sets, where you do 3 to 5 sets in a row without rest. He pointed out that while they might feel effective, they can actually be tougher on your joints than your muscles. It’s a reminder to train smart, not just hard.
