Cultural Tip
In French fitness circles, the English term superset is widely accepted, but you’ll also see it written as super‑set or superset. In formal writing, you can replace it with « série combinée » or « série en chaîne » to avoid anglicisms. Remember that set stays masculine, so the correct article is un, not une.
