[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]At PLT4M, we love the power of a good superset! While there are many different benefits, sometimes when you have a fully loaded workout and only so much time, a superset can help to maximize your time!
In our new 2-day off-season program, we take advantage of supersets throughout the program. Below is an example of a deadlift and single-leg glute bridge superset found in week 1, lift 1 of the program. This small portion and example comes as exercise 6A and 6B. At this point in the workout, students will have warmed up, gone through some important pre-hab and activation, and already done some weightlifting!
Within this example, you will see all of the different parts that make up a PLT4M workout!

Exercise 6A: Deadlift
[/vc_column_text][vc_video link=”https://youtu.be/fD7q8sfatrw”][vc_column_text]- 12:00 for the Deadlift/Bridge Superset. Rest well between sets.
- Same basic approach with our Deadlift today – we are intentionally keeping the loading LIGHT. We want absolutely FLAWLESS movement. Let’s use this as an opportunity to refine our technique, it will help us move heavier weights in the near future. Help one another out and watch for form and technique!
- 5 x 5 @ 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%

Exercise 6B: Single Leg Glute Bridges
[/vc_column_text][vc_video link=”https://youtu.be/NZP7B_aLz2M”][vc_column_text]- 3 x 5 each
- After each of the first 3 sets of Deadlift, perform 5 reps on one leg, then 5 on the other. Looking for SLOW reps and an active SQUEEZE at the top of each, so you can feel your glute turned on.
