What Are Giant Or Monster Sets Before we discuss what one of the best workouts to lose some weight is, we will briefly discuss what giant sets or monster sets are because you will be doing them throughout this workout routine. They consist of four or more exercises being performed without any rest, and the exercises are done for one body part.
