Today on the podcast, we discuss resting between sets — why it’s important and actually a critical piece of any strength training program. Simply put, your body isn’t going to build muscle or strength if you’re not resting between sets. The time you rest even dictates whether you’re improving hypertrophy or endurance. We break down the science behind why rest is essential and the common rest-period mistakes you’ll want to avoid.

In this episode, we discuss:

• Why Rest Periods Matter in Strength Training
• How Rest Affects Muscle Growth and Recovery
• The Science Behind Resting Between Sets
• Ideal Rest Times for Different Fitness Goals
• Common Mistakes People Make With Rest Periods
• Tips for Optimizing Your Rest Between Sets
