What the fuck am I supposed to do between sets? Sit there dicking with my phone? How important is timing your rest anyway
breathe
chill
zen and shit idk it's just like 30 seconds
Superset if you're that autistic.

just fucking chill, don't think too hard about it. nobody else is thinking "why's he resting for so long". I'm guessing you're new to lifting bc when you seriously start lifting heavy you will NEED that rest time.
timing your rest is important for gains. studies have shown 3 minutes is optimal for muscle growth, but I go for 1:30 between sets because I don't have time for that.

I'm reading Berserk on my phone between sets. I'll talk to my gym buddy or browse Facebook usually
Your programming is shit if you have to ask if rest is necessary
rest timing is not that important, just go at it again when you feel ready. obviously this will take longer if you lift heavy sets. I superset all my accessory work because fuck waiting
I just fuck stare at people and get on my knees next to them and say into their ears, next set is YOURS.

Very. Not for muscle growth like this dipshit claims >>36497690
But when you start lifting serious weight you will need the rest to recover for your next set. The difference between 1.5min-3min-4min-5min is literally the difference between making it or not.
