simple question, need a variety of answers
 
Until I feel recovered and breath almost normally again.
It probably varies from muscle group, exercise and reps I'm doing.
 
I didn't vote on any specific section on the vote. I find that with larger muscles I have a break of anything up to 1.5-2 minutes but smaller muscle groups will be usually about 45 seconds.
I sort of work roughly on the rule of another set begins when you get your breathe back from the prior set
 
When I feel ready! Longer for large muscle groups, shorter for small groups. I just try to keep a good pace up without turning it into a cardio session!
 
30-45 seconds between sets and maybe 2-3 min between exercises.

Significantly more on squats and dead lifts though , how ever long it takes to catch my breath , the last month has been a bitch with stuffy nose from pollen
 
2 minutes for large muscles, 1 minute for smaller ones.
 
It all depends on my goals but right now while im cutting I try to keep it under 1 minute.
 
If working 1 body part 2 minutes. When working 2 I superset the 2nd exercise right after the first and rest for 1 minute and then repeat
 
until my breathing returns to normal
 
Larger muscle groups 2-3 min
Smaller muscle groups 1-2 min
Abs 30-45 sec
 
Pretty consistent answers.
 
almost all votes are on 1/2 - 2 minutes which is the best for hypertrophy
 
About the same. 2 min. On large muscles, 1 min. On small.
When working on strength gains for a lifting meet, I usually rest 3 - 5 min.
Between sets of squats or bench press.
 
15 deep breaths between sets. About five minuts with warm-up between movements.
 
I agree with most everyone else. It varies by muscle group, and also weight selection. On days when I am going heavy I take it little extra time to recover between sets.
