Ep 58: Resting Intervals During Your Workouts
🎙️ Podcast Episode Title: Resting Intervals During Your Workouts
Episode Summary:In this episode, we’re tackling one of the most common mistakes people make with their workouts: wasting time in the gym...with their rest times.
🔍 What You’ll Learn:
🔥 The Oven Analogy
Pre-heat = Warm-up
Cooking = Workout
Rest before serving = Cool downJust like baking, you can’t expect great results without respecting each step in the process.
🚀 Warm-Up: Stop Winging It
You need to break a sweat—literally.
Benefits: Raises tissue temperature, increases elasticity, boosts performance, reduces injury risk.
Focus on dynamic movement, not static stretching or foam rolling.
Time frame: 5–10 minutes.
Start global, then move to specific.
Great opportunity for mobility work and foot agility drills like plyometrics — both crucial for every human, not just athletes.
🏋️♂️ Inside the Workout: Timing is EverythingUnderstand the rest intervals that align with your training goals:
Endurance: <30 seconds rest
Hypertrophy (muscle growth): 30–90 seconds
Power/Strength: 2–5 minutes→ We break down the why behind each of these so you’re not just lifting — you’re lifting with purpose.
🧘 Cool Down: Don’t Skip the Finish Line
Duration: 3–5 minutes.
We dive into why cooling down helps bring your body back to baseline and supports recovery — and why it’s often the most overlooked part of the session.
👟 Final Takeaway:Resting randomly between sets? That’s where you're wasting time. Tune in to get the structure your training’s been missing.
