Optimize your rest intervals by using a real timer, logging your weight and reps immediately, and preparing your equipment for the next set. Avoid adding extra fatigue with intense cardio or deep stretching during your downtime. Begin your next set only when your breathing, focus, and strength have fully recovered.
What to do between sets1. Start a real timer. Rest enough to repeat performance not until you feel guilty.2. Write down the set. Log weight, reps, and effort before your memory starts lying.3. Set up the next weight. Change plates and fix the bench make the next set easy to start.4. Do not add more fatigue. Long hard stretches or exercise can cost reps on the next set.5. Go when performance is back. Start when breathing and focus are ready, not when shamed.
