Thanks fellasThere would be no "set standard", It would depend on the condition of the athlete,, better the shape the less rest you need.
When I was bench only, I did alot of sets with 1-1/2 minutes rest between sets. Now I take my time, in full power. Speed work I use 45 seconds as a general rule for me. Heavy sets every bit of 5-7 minutes but I am old and weak now
How long of a rest so you all take between sets on your core lifts? For maximal hypertrophy studies show you need to take 3-5 minutes between sets. However I have read some powerlifting protocols that call for an 8 minute break.[/QUO
It all depends on how much weight you are using and if you have a upcoming meet. Some meets you have a avg of 10 min between lifts due to the amount of lifters. On avg my work sets up to 90% I give 3-5, ANY HIGHER closer to 8
