climber511 Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Anywhere from Load and Go to several minutes - depending on what attribute I am working. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IROC-Z Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 3 - 4 minutes between sets. I always time my rest periods with a stopwatch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fist of Fury Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Depends on the workout. 1-10 minutes. 5 min for gripper singles. 3 min for normal work sets. 1 min for lighter stuff. 10 minutes sometimes, for Rolling Thunder and other fat bars.

DoctorOfCrush Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 3 minutes for working sets. 5 minutes for negatives or singles close to max. All timed with a stopwatch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikael Siversson Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 3 min for everything except thickbar (4 min). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vickg Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Funny how everyone has a similar rest period. I do 2 minutes for block weights and thick bar/levering. 2 minutes working set gripper and 3 minutes hard gripper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cannon Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Hmm, I've never thought to time it but suspect it's in this same range. ~2-3 mins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vickg Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Yeah I actually use a stop watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jose Cabrera Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 TIll' the next song on the playlist starts. Thats nuts man, i do the same thing! I time my rest by songs lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diesel Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 i'll rest as long as i need to (i don't time it). if another minute or two of rest dictates the success of the feat, I will wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wobbler Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 As long as I can, depends how patient I am at the time. 2-4 minutes probably. If I miss a blob lift it's hard to wait for another attempt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KapMan Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 3-5 for everything unless it's light then I do minute 50. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burkhardmacht Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 (edited) Depends on the purpose! Maximum is around 5min - no longer because my hands cool down after this time and can't do anything near peak performance. But normally I tend to do around 1min for additional and speed exercises - or less. Edited January 31, 2016 by Burkhard Macht Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mac Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 Around 3 minutes but I'm doing controlled deep breathing exercises during this 3 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slazbob Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 I never actually rest...I go to different exercises in between. At the gym I'll do a set of squats, then go over to the dumbbell rack and do hammer curls ....etc. At home when doing grip stuff, I'll go from RT curls, to a thumb squeeze on a clamp, then push ups, then a gripper close...and just repeat that until I'm ready to max. I found hitting that clamp in between gripper sets is very helpful. It could be mental, but I do better at grippers when I use the clamp. It's not a max...but I use it to have the thumbs ready for pinch, after grippers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
felixthecat Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 Around 2-3 minutes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
