Rest between sets?

[arcilitei34]

For bulking, 3x8 maximum, what would you guys recommend for how long to rest between sets?

1-2 minutes should be ample as far as I'm aware.

2 MINUTES for bigger body parts, 45-1 minute for smaller ones.

I do 3 min... if i'm lifting weight near my max.

 

[MindOverMatter]

a minute - minute and a half.

 

[Double]

i do 3minutes

If you bust your tail on a set you shouldn't be able to do the same amount of work or more work with only a one minute rest. My opinion that is.

I wait 2-4 minutes.

Im assuming you've put your body through hypertrophy, in which your muscles would have really gained endurance. So since you are now doing less reps, IMO 45 sec - 1 min 30 sec tops, would be good rest between sets
