Anyone work with very short rest periods?

^i do agree that cardio SHOULD be unnecessary for men... get a hard ass working job where you are on your feet all day and you will get plenty of that while getting paid... ive got gym buddies that shovel for the city and im a union warehouseman and we are leaner than there dudes that do a couple hours of cardio and eat cleaner because for their job they sit on their asses all day... more rewarding and union/city jobs still pay great...

That's cool for you but most guys just don't have jobs that will ever get their heart rates up enough to be considered a cardio workout.
And you are young. After a few years of that the desk job will sound much more appealing to you. (and pay more).

been workin my ass off for 15+ years bro... i think most guys just dont have the work ethic to the heart rate up, trust me, i work with those guys... there is plenty of work in this world, you can even start your own business and make a killing doing hard work, which we are also doing...

I do short rests between each of my rest, pause sets as part of DC training and I love it.

Do a set of 7-10, rest for 20 seconds, do another 3-4 reps, rest for 20 seconds, and do a final 1-2 reps for a total of 11-15 reps in the rest pause set all done with slow negatives and strict form.

The result is me gaining a stupid amount of strength in the last few months I've been doing it and a good amount of mass too.

Well bros today was the first workout and man it was awesome! The weights had to be very light but the intensity was crazy... rest periods between sets ranged from 10-20 seconds, we moved from one exercise to the next with no more rest than that and by the time 8x8 was done for five exercises we were both out of breath and so pumped could barely move! My girlfriend rang me on my way out of the gym and I had a hard time holding my phone to my ear lol... Looking forward to seeing the results of this over a few weeks : )
