Going to be getting back into the 5x5 routine for about a month here, and just curious how much rest you give yourself after each set? I haven't came up with the routine yet, but it will probably be something like this, lets say for chest:
Flat Bench Press 5 x5 i was thinking 90 sec rest b/w sets
Flat Dumbell Flyes 3 x 8 probably 60 second rest here
Incline Dumbell Press 3 x 6-8 once again, about 60 sec rest
shoulders might be...
Military Press 5 x 5
Upright Row 3 x 10
Lateral Raise 2 x 8
Bent Over Raise 2 x 8
USUALLY, what i do for rest is, if my rep range is between 1 and 3, i give myself 120 seconds to rest, between 4-6 i give myself 90 seconds, and between 7 and 12 i give myself 60 seconds.
Any suggestions/comments are appreciated
thanks
