Cluster Sets: How To Make Training Harder Easier

The word cluster often has a negative connotation, especially when paired with a certain four-letter word. But in the strength and conditioning space, it’s the exact opposite.

While most lifters know about drop sets and supersets, there’s another training method that deserves your attention: cluster sets.

Collegiate strength and conditioning coach Jordan Jacobs lent his expertise to GGR for an in-depth breakdown of this effective strategy for reducing fatigue while lifting heavy loads. So, if you’re a fan of compound exercises and want even more efficiency with your workouts, check out Jordan’s comprehensive cluster guide.

Giant Lifting Wall Rack 2.0 Review

With a quarter-century of Olympic weightlifting experience, Senior Staff Writer and clean-and-jerk savant Caine Wilkes has spent more time with barbells and squat racks than anyone on the GGR squad. Naturally, that made the battle-tested Olympian the ideal tester for Giant Lifting Wall Rack 2.0 — a beast of a rack that boasts a 1,000-pound weight capacity.

While not every lifter can (or should) go as heavy as Caine, rest assured that this space-saving design from Giant Lifting can handle anything you throw its way.
