I rest 5 minutes between compound movements, now sets to form failure, l rest until my breath is totally back to normal. This is how l have made my biggest gains, l agree go for feel as well don't be afraid to try something different ,once last sets of each exercise is until form failure, you would have had a good workout.
You guys have took muscle talking to the next level with having not one opinion but three which really gives a solid break down because you guys don’t always agree but have the end goals the same.
Thanks MPS. I am a beginner doing stronglifts. At the start I could need maybe one minute rest between sets. Four months into the program I time my rest to three minutes to recover for next set
There is 0 (and I really mean zero) evidence that resting more than 3 minutes is bad for muscle growth. It is bad from a time managment perspective, but from a hypertrophy perapective it makes perfect sense.
Absolutely. Also, if I do any set to failure, there's no frigging way I can do the same set after only 1 minute. Sometimes I do fewer reps with even 3 minutes of rest. I guess for muscle growth it's "whenever you feel strong again to do the same set" :)) That usually it's after 4 minutes of rest (for me)
I think I heard 80% recovery occurs by 3 minutes and by 15 minutes you’ve hyper compensated. Not worth the time for most people but probably actually ideal for strength training.
I am simple: The more muslces involved in an exercise the longer the rest phase. But since I dont want to sit around for minutes: I do a deadlift followed by a 1minute break, followed by something unreleated like a incline dumbbell press, followed by another minute break, back into Deadlift.
Yeah but say you’re going to failure for 10 reps on you’re first and the last rep is Grindy there’s no way you’re going to get 10 reps on the second and the third set unless you’re resting at least 5-6 minutes
ATP takes about 2 minutes to be close to being fully replenished. If you are taking your sets to failure then you should wait the 2 minutes. I usually do 2-3 and have seen good results.
So I am confused…if I understand well, you should wait between 30 sec to 3 minutes. Let’s say I am going for 4 different exercises with 10 rep for each for 3 times each. When do I take the rest? Is it between each 10 repetitions or is it between each for exercises?
I use the stopwatch on my phone every set so its always the same which for me is 3 min, i train for a mixture of of size and strength, i have tried 1 min rest before it just doesnt work for me, isolation im ok with 2 min but compounds minimum 3 min
I’ve started strength training but since I’m fairly new to it I’m not using heavy weights or crazy resistance. I’m assuming my rest periods could be shorter because of this or are long rests still needed?
I train to failure pull ups and push ups, I don’t imagine do another set after 30 seconds after I still suffer from the previous one and my sessions are really long could take an hours to finish my workout, and Some people are saying oooo no you have to finish in 1 h well good luck with this sir...
How is all this stuff for free? Man god bless y’all
i know, everything is free now. There is no excuse not to build bigger muscle.
This podcast is the best when it comes to working out everything is so straight forward

same ... best muscle gains i have experienced besides newbie gains were from intense heavy sets with 4 to 5 min rest between sets
I take 1-year rest periods between my squats because it involves a lot of muscle groups. I don't want to over-train these toothpicks.
You guys have took muscle talking to the next level with having not one opinion but three which really gives a solid break down because you guys don’t always agree but have the end goals the same.
Rest also depends on the exercise you're doing. Taxing exercises like squats take more recovery time between sets than something like bicep curls.
Best fitness advice ever. This podcast has changed my life! Thanks so much guys
That is awesome!

Yeah, as I said it doesn't make sense to rest 15 minutes, but if you had infinite time it is still better than one minute

I do a deadlift followed by a 1minute break, followed by something unreleated like a incline dumbbell press, followed by another minute break, back into Deadlift.
These guys should have a lot more views and subs

I wish I would’ve found you guys sooner
what about rest-pause myo reps ect...they seem to build muscle but time between sets is 15sec
ATP takes about 2 minutes to be close to being fully replenished. If you are taking your sets to failure then you should wait the 2 minutes. I usually do 2-3 and have seen good results.

Do you add load or reps when you increase rest period and vice versa?
I do full body Pushups,decline,incline, and bicep curls each are 4x15 should i rest a 1 minute or 3 minute to gain muscle
i'm gonna go rest now
So rest is specific to workouts then?
No rest periods
If only my ADHD allowed me to accurately know how long I’m resting lol
wear a stopwatch?
Lmaooo I just waith until catch some breat/feel my energy filled up/ BLOOD streaming
I use the stopwatch on my phone every set so its always the same which for me is 3 min, i train for a mixture of of size and strength, i have tried 1 min rest before it just doesnt work for me, isolation im ok with 2 min but compounds minimum 3 min

2 mins 30 secs is a good rest period

Do People here have Jobs
How do some people dont track the rest time ?
Im always resting
I train to failure pull ups and push ups, I don’t imagine do another set after 30 seconds after I still suffer from the previous one and my sessions are really long could take an hours to finish my workout, and Some people are saying oooo no you have to finish in 1 h well good luck with this sir...
Supersets, just train other body part.
4:50 Hah, 3 minutes long rest. Try 2-3 hours.
