Lengthened supersets Lengthened supersets involve performing partial repetitions at longer muscle lengths after reaching failure with a normal range of motion. A recent study on calf raises, using 23 untrained men, showed that lengthened supersets led to 43.3% greater growth in the medial gastrocnemius muscle compared to normal training. The study's promising results add to the growing evidence that training muscles at longer lengths can be beneficial for hypertrophy. While these findings are significant, they were conducted on untrained individuals and only on calf raises, so further research is needed to generalize these results to other exercises and trained individuals.
