Superset with 3 exercises?

[bartosh]

Is that practical or just overdoing it?

an example would be

Lat Pulldown straight to Barbell Rows straght to Pullups
or
Barbell Bench Press straight to Cable Flys straight to Incline Bench Press

well i mean you can but youd be doing lat pulldown and pullups which work the same muscles very close to each other....i guess that can be done but i tend to prefer longer breaks before hitting the same muscle.

Actually it is not possible, 3 exercises back to back to back is called a Tri-set Probably better suited for smaller muscles like shoulders and arms. I would hesitate to do a tri-set with 2 compound moves like bench & incline or pull ups & barbell rows.

Lol sorry humor is kind of hard for me to get on the internet.

its still called a superset with 3 moves back to back

superset just means two or more exercises done back to back

^^Um, NO! A superset is 2 moves back to back, TRI-set is 3 (tri means 3) and a giant set is 4 or more. here read this..

haha gotcha. Considering there's a term for it, I would assume it isn't THAT bad of a thing to do. Recently i've really been getting bored at the gym repeating the same thing day by day and this is something new i'd like to try

just do a new routine? idk just with pullups and pulldowns so close together it seems like it would slow progress.

If you really have a 315lbs bench@179lbs BW, then I think you already know the answer to your question.
