A trainer shows you how to get a full-body workout with dumbbells in just 15 minutes

A woman performs a weighted sumo squat in a gym in sneakers, leggings and a sports bra. She is squatting with her legs out wide and a dumbbell held low towards the ground. In the background we see squat racks and exercise benches.

When I’m short on time but need a workout that delivers results, I turn to supersets. This strength training method pairs two exercises back to back with minimal or no rest in between.

What I love about supersets is that reduced rest periods save time and increase workout intensity. This not only activates more muscles and promotes muscular endurance, strength and growth but the continuous effort keeps your heart rate elevated, adding a cardio element to your training.
