Like I said, It depends on how much weight I am using. But most of the time yea. When I squat my regular 10-rep weight, I'll usually rest 90 seconds. I'll rest longer as I go up in weight, but no longer than 2minutes. When I lift regular weight lifts I rest for 60 secs. But when I do stuff like squats, clean & jerks, es(Bunch of power & olympic lifts), I'll take a pretty good rest because those exercise completely tire me out. Those kind of exercises pretty much require your whole body to work them. So yea, you should take a long rest between so you won't kill yourself. But not to long. At most 2 minutes. I rarely lift weights now these days since moving on to better stuff. The only kind of "weightlifting" I would probaly do are stuff like Olympic lifts and squats.

Better stuff? Please, do tell! :)

9/16

30 Minutes Jump Rope

Overhead Plate Raises
Pushups
Lateral Raises
Duck Waddles
Knock Downs

30/30 for the exercises. That means 30 secs on then 30 secs off. So for example: I'll do the Overhead Plate Raise for 30 seconds straights then 30 seconds off. After the 30 seconds on I will use the next 30 seconds to rest and move on to the next exercise. After the 30 seconds off is done I immediatley start the next exercise. So on and so on. I did this for 30 minutes.

15 Minutes Wind Sprints

What are knock downs?

You first lie down on your back and get someone to stand behind you. You then grab their ankles. Next you lift your legs straight in the air. Once the time starts that person behind you will try and knock-down your legs back to the ground. It's your job to keep your legs from hitting the ground and to keep them straight. Bring your legs back up everytime he hits them. Remember though to keep them straight and not let thm touch the ground. I'll see if I can possibly post a video of it.

You are an animal...

Thanks. I try an make my workouts as tough as possible. Those towel-pullups are brutal. You gotta try them. Pull for 30 seconds then hold it for 30 seconds. Great for grip strength.
