    3x6-10 isn’t a rest interval. It reads as “3 sets of 6-10 reps” of the exercise. So between 18-30 total reps, generally done in sets to let the body rest between reps to build up ATP so you have energy to do the repeats. Rest time should almost always be up to 3 min between sets for maximum energy in that muscle group, but no less than 90 seconds.

    If you do sets of workouts in sequence with other sets of excersizes, that is a circuit. Organizing sets by muscle group and alternating them on a circuit is a great way to let you get that 3 minutes of rest for those muscles while still being efficient. Push ups to lunges to ab wheel rollout would be a basic example of a circuit that goes “upper body – lower body – core”

    Also fuck Chatbots, fuck LLMs, fuck Marketers. Seriously, fuck all of them.

      Ahh I see, thanks for clarifying! I’ve only just started taking exercising seriously so I’m definitely new to some of the concepts. I’ll keep that in mind 💪
