Simple retarded noob question here

How long should one ideally wait between sets.

Is it the same for every different excersize?

Usually 2 minutes, you can take as long as you need to recover tho

It's not a studpid question as rest times influence thngs in a big way. But you can find your answer on most any training site.

I have a decent home gym setup in my room and sometimes i wait 5-10 min between sets usually because I get distracted by something.

Im guessing this is bad?

Nah, i'ts good.

Sometimes I also do that

Depends on rep range and intensity.

High volume: 30 seconds to a minute.
Heavy weight: 3-5 minutes depending on how much you exerted yourself.

Ultimately intensity and volume is an inverse relationship. As your reps increase less rest should be needed because lighter weight is being used. Thus each rep is less intense.

90-120 seconds for me. Mostly 90 seconds. There's no real specific answer. Do what feels good for you.

>>35438054
People always told me, that

<2 minutes
Endurance

2–3 minutes
Hypertrophy (muscle growth)

>3 minutes
Strength

It's probably broscience, but I stick to it. I pretty much always do 2 minutes though.

Depends on what you're trying to accomplish. But, it probably doesn't matter.
