rest period between sets

4-5mins on big lifts for strength and 30 and 60sec for accessory exercises of 3-5 sets. Gets in a lot of volume quicker. For some unilateral exercises no rest just one side after the other till all 3 sets are done. Suits me and my goals.

I like that about unilateral exercises. Works well for upper body...not quite so well for things like lunges or split squats, though, for cardiovascular reasons (at least, that's my experience).
