Superset Support

A superset pairs two exercises so you alternate between them on the watch instead of finishing every set of one before starting the next. LiftTrack lets you build supersets in the Workout Editor and sends the structure to your Garmin watch, so the alternation happens automatically when you train.

How it works

Supersets attach to two exercises that are already in your workout. The flow lives entirely inside the Workout Editor.

Open the workout in the “Workout Editor” and find the first exercise of the pair.
Tap the three-dot options menu on that exercise’s card and pick “Add to Superset”. An exercise picker opens showing the other exercises in the workout.
Choose the partner exercise. Both exercises are now linked as a superset and a superset indicator appears on each Exercise Builder Card.
Save the workout. If your Garmin account is linked, the workout (with the superset structure) syncs to Garmin Connect in a few seconds.
During the workout, your watch alternates between the paired exercises set by set. Set 1 of exercise A, set 1 of exercise B, then set 2 of A, set 2 of B, and so on.

To break a pair, open the options menu on either exercise in the superset and tap “Remove From Superset”. The two exercises return to behaving as ordinary, independent steps in the workout.

What you’ll see in the app

A few specifics that anchor the feature to actual UI.

The exercise options menu shows “Add to Superset” when the exercise is not part of one, and switches to “Remove From Superset” once it is paired.
Each Exercise Builder Card that belongs to a superset shows a superset indicator chip in the indicators row, alongside any progression, rest timer, and warmup rest indicators.
Rest timer settings stay attached to each exercise individually — the rest you set on exercise A applies after each set of A, and the rest on B applies after each set of B.
A maximum superset count is enforced. If you try to add one beyond the limit, the editor surfaces a message naming the cap and asking you to remove an existing superset before creating a new one. Remove an existing pair if you want to create a new one.
The “Skip rest timer?” prompt covers superset behavior too. The dialog asks whether LiftTrack should “automatically skip the rest timer after your last set or superset”, so the final pair of the workout can finish cleanly on the watch.

When this helps

Supersets are most useful when paired exercises do not compete for the same recovery. Antagonist pairs are the classic example: bench press with a row, squat with a Romanian deadlift, biceps curl with a triceps extension. While one muscle group works, the other is resting, so total session time drops without sacrificing rest quality on either lift.

The same logic applies to upper-and-lower pairings (overhead press with a goblet squat) and to alternating between pushing and pulling movements anywhere in a workout. For hypertrophy work in particular, supersetting smaller accessories keeps total volume up inside a fixed time budget — the rest between sets of a lateral raise can be the work set on a face pull, and you finish the block faster than you would running them straight.

Supersets are not the right pick for every situation. Heavy compound singles or doubles still want long, dedicated rest, and pairing two exercises that share the same prime movers usually just leaves both lifts worse off. The feature gives you the structure on the watch when supersets fit; deciding when they fit is up to your program.

Setup

No setup required. Supersets are configured per workout in the Workout Editor and travel along when the workout syncs to your Garmin watch.

“Rest timer” — per-exercise rest behavior applies inside the superset, so each leg of the pair can have its own rest configuration.
“Garmin watch integration” — the superset structure rides along when the workout syncs to your watch.
