I decided to try switching up the order of the supersets to see how it would affect the workout. Instead of having the first two supersets have cardio leg-based moves, I switched the second and third supersets, putting a space in between the leg workouts. It made a world of difference. My legs were still completely exhausted at the end of the workout, but it managed to make the workout a little less challenging  “cardiovascularly,” so I was able to do some of the exercises with better form and control because I wasn’t out of breath and gasping for air. It also just made the entire workout seem less torturous.
