Can anyone explain supersets? Keep seeing references about them but no explanation.

Doing a super set is when you do 2 (rarely 3) of two different exercises back to back with no rest in between, then a rest after the two.
For example: Shoulder press followed immediately by lateral raises, followed by rest before going back to the presses.

You already blew out your wraps.
Your towel cant absorb any more sweat.
Theres puke on the floor.
Your partner is passed out.
Theres a crowd gathering...
