Well, I'm averaging 4 or 5 sets per exercise, 8-10 reps per set, ad I try not to exceed 90 seconds rest between sets. It typically takes all 90 seconds to get my energy back up for another assault on heavier lifts like squats and DL's, but on everything else, I may even cut it to one minute between sets. 30-45 seconds between abdominal sets. On that kind of pace, I can usually get five (sometimes six) different exercises in for the whole workout. Currently, I'm hitting a two-way (upper/lower) split that looks something like the following: Lower Squats 5 x 10 (90 seconds rest) Deadlift 5 x 10 (90 seconds) DB Lunge 4 x 10 (60 seconds) Standing Calf Raise 4 x 20 (60 seconds) Reverse Crunch 4 x 15 (30 seconds) Upper Chinup 4 X 7 (60 seconds) Low Cable Row 5 x 8 (60 seconds) Bent DB Row 4 x 10 (60 seconds) Bench Press 5 x 8 (60 seconds) Incline DB Press 4 x 8 (60 seconds) Swiss Ball Ab crunch 4 x 25 (30 seconds) All of which is subject to change within two weeks. Never sit still

Yes, that's me in my avatar, and NO, I don't look like that today. That was taken back in Jan '07, and I lost most of that progress when I slacked off last year. I'm on my way back, tho, and I'm using that photo for inspiration.
