The Claim
Superset resistance training reduces session duration by approximately 37% while maintaining similar total repetitions and volume load compared to traditional resistance training, resulting in significantly higher training efficiency (SMD=1.74, p=0.01) in trained individuals.
What the research says
Supports is higher
Support is ahead, but a single strong opposing study can change this.
These are independent scores, not a percentage. Higher-grade studies count more, so a single strong opposing study can outweigh several weaker ones.
A faster workout method called superset training cuts exercise time by over a third without reducing reps or weight, making workouts much more efficient for people who already exercise regularly.

What the research says
1 studyThe study looked at superset training and found it saves time while doing the same amount of exercise, making workouts more efficient, just like the claim says.
