Was just reading your pull up routine and I was just wondering how long you recommend resting in between each exercise?

 Recommended Rest Time Between Sets

Hi there,

It kind of depends on how hard you find the exercises.

Most likely you will need to rest between 30 to 45 seconds between each set.
