Thanks bros.
Syn,
Yes, that's rest time between sets - it's typically 2 minutes for upper body lifts and 2.5 for lower body, but the relative intensity this week for lower body is a bit higher, so I upped it up 3 minutes for those. I set the timer on my phone for 110 or 140 seconds or whatever and then hit the button as soon as possible after I rack the bar. Then I do whatever superset is indicated during the rest period (if a superset is indicated), and get back under the bar with about 20-25 seconds left in the timer and start getting set up.
It was rough at first, but I'm used to it now. Plus the relative intensity in this phase of the Sheiko program is pretty low, so it wasn't that tough of a transition to this program.
