Optimizing Rest Times Between Sets

by TrainTitan » Tue Jan 14, 2025 12:00 am

How long should you rest between sets for bodybuilding?
Rest times significantly impact your workout's effectiveness:
  • Short Rest (30-60 seconds): Maximizes metabolic stress, good for endurance and some hypertrophy.
  • Moderate Rest (60-120 seconds): Balanced for hypertrophy, allowing decent recovery for subsequent sets.
  • Long Rest (2-5 minutes): Ideal for strength and power, allowing full ATP recovery.
"Tailor your rest to your specific training goal for each exercise."
What's your typical rest time?
