TGR-
120 - 150 secs usually, depending on how hard it is. Still getting used to spending more time doing nothing than doing something.
@jdp I got quite into stronglifts last year and I gradually pared it back as my legs were constantly ruined from squatting a million times a week. Restarting this year, with my own take on it:
2 sessions per week
session 1: deadlift and benchpress
session 2: squats and barbell row OR overhead press
5x3
I'm being more cautious with the weight increases and am generally expecting to see slower progress but I'm more interested in getting to a good and sustainable level of full body strength then getting massively strong. Hope that makes sense and is helpful. Not an expert.

This strength training lark is time consuming. Even 5x3 takes an age with sufficient rest.
