My first real strength gains came from A 6 month run of Starting Strength, which really drilled into me the value of low reps and long rest periods. Then I switched to 5/3/1, which had assistance work with higher reps and lower rest periods. I've been running 5/3/1 for over a year now, and I'm able to add weight to all my major lifts almost every month- so, it's working and I don't want to **** around with something that's working. But I'm always asking myself:
I can rack up a ****-ton more volume in less gym time if my rest periods are low(60 seconds'ish) but am I sacrificing strength gains by not sitting on my ass for 3 minutes after every set of rows?
