Does it actually matter at all how long a rest you take in between sets?
>>77562497For my main lifts I do 5x5 at 5rm with massive 5-10 minute rests between (working out takes forever) and see great progress in strength and muscle gains.On the other hand some muscles I hardly care much about and do 3x12 with 30 second rests. Usually I get a much better pump for these but otherwise gains are worse.
>>77562497>me >having my entire tongue inside the brown girl's assholepick two
>>77562497See for yourself OP. Try a 1 second rest then try a 5 minute rest. What a dumb question.
No. You can do drop sets with zero rest and it will have almost the same effect for muscle volume. Just don't be out of breath. It should be a muscle faile, not your carduo failure.But if you are training for strength, it definitely matters. For isometrics it also matters a lot.
>>77562497Doesn't anyone use the QTDDTOT any more or is this just a trooned out wog thread?
>>77562497The problem with jeetas is they care too much about statusIm pretty sure thats why I got ghosted because she kept asking about my education and career and I told her i dont really give a fuck i just work to make money and fund the stuff i actually want to do
>>77562565It is not a problem that a girl wants to date a guy who is not a bum
>>77562583No but it's a problem a guy wants to date a mud
>>77562565You must be a complete bottom tier wagie to get curved by a jeeta, get your status up
>>77562497Yes, you need to rest to replenish ATP in your muscles so that you can go back at lifting hard, that way you damage more muscle cells than just doing one "mega set". Usually when you do a set to failure, that failure is more energetic than true mechanical, muscular failure.
No. I spread my sets throughout the day
>>77562497>tfw I will never have a qt Indian gf because I’m white and they refuse to date non-Indian men
>>77562583>>77562591I make good money but i do roofing so it isnt "prestigious"Even tho she was one of the low caste black ones whos family work minimum wage and sold all their shit in india to afford her education so she can be the first doctor in their family line
>>77562565How terrible she wants to be with a guy who has ambition. That must have sucked the big one for you, I'm sorry.
>>77562676Lmao here come the armchair psychologists who judge your entire personality based on two sentences Here's the keywords you were too retarded to understand>fund the stuff i actually want to do
>>77562672You got mogged by not only a female but a jeet?
>>77562672Your loss. This be how Indian girls be acting when their white bf isn’t a massive loser
>>77562497Why is Kent State girl not holding the mic?
>>77562497I do 1:30 for most stuff sometimes 2 or 3 mins depending. Like leg extensions are 3 min rest. A fair bit of the reason is I have specific raps and sets to complete for specific movements and I have limited time so gotta keep it moving. Strength training longer rests like 5 mins if im doing like a top set/backoff bench block for strength. So yeah short rest is 1:30, med rest is 3 mins and long rest is 5 or more. You just need to experiment on different lifts and tailor it to your goals. Like heavy triples yeah you should be resting 5 or more mins. Pec deck for 3x10? 1:30 is fine. Go lift and figure it out.
>>77562497i take like 5 hour breaks inbetween supersets lmaoi don't think i could do 3 minutes. i wouldn't be able to do that many reps the next set
>>77562497I don't have a home gym at the moment (live in a tiny apartment), so the only weights I can do here are bodyweight and theraband and then dumbbells and stuff, so I have to go to the gym.When I'm in my apartment, I can clean and do other low-mental requirement shit between sets... my place is immaculate because of this. I do Heavy Duty, so sets to failure, and then 5 minute rest between sets in which I can clean several sqm or organize my work area etc.But at the gym? Even if I'm listening to something like a Pimsleur language tape or maths or physics lectures, 5 minutes isn't enough time to get my brain locked into something, only to then "clear" my brain for doing the next set (I completely focus on the set with no music or audio when doing lifts), then reload all that information back into my brain for the next rest time. So I keep my rest time to 30 seconds... even that feels like an eternity.Any tips on this? picrel
since rest pause training works and long rest intervals also works it would seem like it doesn't matter for hypertrophy. For strength maybe it does idk
>>77562672A lot of girls have elecated ego. She prbbly downloaded tinder and compared you to some 200k/per year chad who swiped right on her. A summer child has no fuvking idea that chad will just pump and dump her and will ghost her. Prbbly just wants to try an exotic pussy and that's all.You are luvky it happened before you had anything serious. Stay away from colored girls. They all are golddiggers. They act traditional only when you provide for them and will move on if they find someone better.
>>77562780Goddamn my ex wife drove me crazy during Covid and I worked from home interrupting me with a le funny TikTok or some dumb shit. She NEVER understood to leave me the fuck alone during work hours no matter how many times or how irritated I got. It really contributed to the divorce.
>>77562789I feel you, brother. Though I have never been married, I had to move in with some family at the age of 28 during covid, as someone who had run away to live on their own at 10 years old and hadn't lived with them since, because of some really harsh and extenuating circumstances. Even after a single month of it, I promptly left again. I am an engineer (day job), machinist, creative/artist, amongst other things, there is no way I can tolerate others breaking my flow state. Even long-term girlfriends have to have their own separate bedroom and work areas from me. If I ever become wealthy and decide to acquire a wife, I am going to have a compound. I don't want to even live in the same building as my wife.The only people with whom I live in close proximity are my male friends, who are of a similar mental outlook and attitude. When living in shared accommodations in the past (house for wayward/disturbed youths, mental institution, then high school, university, post-university), we could be "invisible" to each other if we wanted, and know to NOT disturb others while they are in the middle of something, barring an extreme emergency like a building fire lol.Sorry to hear about your divorce. Sounds like you did the correct thing. If you choose to marry again, I will say that even though I am White and would like White children, Asian women from regions like central China are accustomed to separate bedrooms and being somewhat autonomous, even though they are females. Though this might be because the ones I have dated are PhDs in fields such as discrete mathematics so their brains are "male" anyway.
>>77562784>A summer child has no fuvking ideaYeh that's basically what she was, except she really had no idea about anything in lifeNever worked a real job aside for parttime seasonal bullshit, couldnt drive a car, was sheltered all her life but had these grand ambitions about being a doctor and escaping povertyI think the biggest rift was because I didnt go to school. She was in disbelief and kept asking if i would consider going and that its not too late for me lol. Couldn't wrap her head around the fact I was a smart white guy from a well off family who would rather work physical labor.
>>77562803I had to pay my ex wife $98,000 so I’m not falling for the marriage trap again
>>77562505Kill yourself, faggot.
>>77562497girl on the right is just unbelievably attractive need moar of her
>>77562497The dormant white man sees the brown as unviable and the white as a potential wife. The stirring white man sees the opposite and knows that the white woman pictured here is a liberal whore. the fully conscious white man understands that they are both whores.>>77562672I never understood something about indians, probably because I never cared to notice them beyond their occasional fuckable women, but I thought lower caste weren’t allowed to be certain jobs even outside of india. Is that not true? I thought even the lower caste abides by that rule very strictly. Then again I also thought they weren’t allowed to leave india-wow I just understood why so many indians act how they do in other countries. The caste doesn’t matter to them anymore so they think their shit doesn’t stink and preemptively expect to be treated poorly
>>77562497There's actually a paradox that to date none of the science bros have actually attempted to explain. They say resting too short between sets is bad for strength/hypertrophy, but then they say rest-pause and myo-reps give identical gains, even without volume equated.
>>77562497I’d like to rest my dick in her pussy if you know what I mean
>>77563136But there’s two girls anon, which pussy?
>>77562505She legitimately looks like a man.Get some standards bro, there are far more beautiful jeet girls out there.

>>77562697Imagine being a white man and genuinely thinking this is a girl worth dating.
>>77563516Yeah bro this dude could do so much better by virtue of being white
>>77562565>>77562672I'm objectively a broke loser but I'm conventionally attractive and let me tell you if you are employed and can't even hang on to a jeeta you must be bum fucking ugly dawg
>>77563521Wait this is the dude with the Arab girl on the leash in the other anon's pic?
>>77563640No, I’m just saying that anon is acting like every white guy could automatically do better than a qt Indian girl just by virtue of being white, which is obviously not true.

>>77562583Between these and the nigger whisperer I love jeetas now
>>77564949>nigger whispererWhat?
>>77562784>fuvking
>>77562497yes. your body uses creatine phosphate for energy for limit exertions, so if you want to do pure strength/powerlifting/weightlifting/some gymnastics activities you will need to rest 3-5 minutes, maybe up to 10, between exertions for your creatine phosphate levels to recover. unless you're an elite athlete you've got about 10 seconds of creatine reserves at any time; elite athlets might (maybe, it's debated) have up to 30 seconds depending on their sport. training is energy systems training.
>>77562497For the physical process of hypertrophy itself "no" not in the slightest.It matters mostly for consistency and being able to accurately avoid failing dangerous lifts.Like if I know resting 60-90 seconds just by feel will make my sets looks likeSession sets: reps.reps.reps1 9.5.42 8.6.33 10.4.24 8.8.6This is chaotic you got issues dialing in the weight probably calling failure a little too early on most sets because you don't want to snap something. If you rest consistently but still short you'll probably get something like 1 8.6.52 8.7.53 9.6.84 8.6.7Less chaotic but could be flattened out more by resting a little more and maybe sparing a rep on on the earlier sets. That kind of elimination of chaos is what gives you the kind of insights to make that hypertrophy occur as regularly long term and not overshoot so much on a single day. So yes it matters just it's a bigger picture kind of thing.
>>77562668Are you joking? There’s plenty that love whites bro
>>77565014For real? There’s a ton of Indian girls on my campus but you never see them with white guys like you do the Asian girls.

>>77562497it depends waht you're trying to do, anonyou take really long rests to build up work capacity by stacking volumeand then you condense it after that with shorter rests
