Lift Big Eat Big: How Much Rest Do You Need Between Sets?

iron-inside:

I get asked these two questions pretty often - how long should I rest between sets and how long should my workout be? LBEB does a pretty good job addressing both here.

Great post.

Getting back in it

So, I know it’s been awhile. Here’s a quick update. 

-Spent the first two weeks of summer on vacation. Drank too many beers. 

-Trying to get back into the swing of working out and everything. Spent last week being lazy. Decided not to do that now. Constantly tired. I hate night shift. 

-I bought some resistance bands to keep at work so I can get my swell on during my shift. Also going to convert my workstation into a standing desk and the goal is to work up to spending most of my 8 hours standing. We’ll see how that goes. 

-I wish I had something classy and sophisticated to say, but that wouldn’t be my style.

Hey, look! A real update!

I’m currently on vacation and have been since the 10th of May. I’m due to return home on Friday. Actually ready to get home, however, things are dicey there right now. Please keep my home of OKC/Moore/Norman in your thoughts after the events of today. 

School is out for summer and I’m fully committed to diet/working out. Really didn’t care about any of that last week while I was in Philly (but still didn’t have a cheesesteak), and it finally caught up with me last week as I was coming to my Family’s place in Ohio. A 9 hour drive turned into a 12 hour drive. Fun times. 

I’m going with the carb-nite solution for a little bit. I know that I tend to feel better with more protein/fat and lower carbs, so hopefully this will keep my over doing it to a minimum. Plus, it’s summer and I like beer. 

It’s 330am eastern now, so I’m going to try to go to sleep.
