If you want to get the best training effect for a particular muscle group and your time is tight, using a giant set is your best bet.

A giant set combines exercises that target the same muscle group and takes you through the full rep spectrum with varying loads and movement speeds. Take on this 10-minute giant set to work your lats, traps, and rhomboids—and build a monster-size back.

Directions

Set your timer for 10 minutes, and complete as many rounds of the four-exercise giant set as possible. Take a 30-second rest after the fourth exercise to shake out your arms before starting the circuit again.
