Rest times for Sheiko

[teamfatboy]

Dobryj Den', comrades

Today's new-to-Sheiko question - what's the prescription for rests between sets/ between groups-of-sets ?

the general consenus is 2-3 mins but take aslong as you feel needed. 10minutes is not needed :pfft: :pfft: :pfft:

[Big john]

2-4 mins, or usually till the song on my ipdo has finished, just go by feel. its a marathon not a race

if rounding up 75 mins

Changing the Plates, ticking the lift in the book, have a drink (Squats) rolling the wraps done.

That's about where I was pitching it - finish a set, adjust weights, drink, sit and focus, touch the bar and go... was thinking that if I'm feeling the rest times are too long, maybe I'm still a wee bit light?

Good attitude your conditioning will pick up as the programme progresses.

Sheiko is a sultry beast it draws you in with a easy week one but ask the rest of the comrades the Sheiko Flu kicks in on week 3 week 4 well you have to experience it.

Something to look forward to, then eh!

I rather think that #37 might be on the cards maybe October time...

It,s depends principally to the sets intensity. For maximun hypertrophy, the incomplete rest times take to an insufficient metabolic recovery between series, that added to a major volume of training would take us to the time to a metabolic supercompensation, increasing the size.

Also short rests increase the production of lactic acid and this leads in turn to an increase of the gh.

I like for regular hypertrophy routines rest times between 60/90 secs.
