In this video, Skip La Cour tells you how much time you should rest in between your sets to build muscle effectively, efficiently, and in the shortest period of time.

Many bodybuilders often ask me what I think is the proper length of time to rest between sets.

Getting cut, ripped, and shredded are all ways to describe ridding your body of excess fat. In the absence of excess body fat, you will display more muscularity, definition, or detail. Some people ask me, “How many reps should I do if I want more definition or detail? Shouldn’t I do more reps?” I would never suggest that you do more reps to get more cuts or definition. The number of repetitions you do during a set—or weight training at all, for that matter—is not what gets you lean. Getting rid of excess body fat comes from adhering to an…

Some people have very strong opinions whether or not you should use knee wraps, weight belts, or wrist straps during training sessions.
