I wonder if Rip has ever answered a question without insulting the person asking.

This video was "peeerfect" and caused me "no problems." "Thanks so much!"

"No Problem " will rest long enough between sets.

When you're in the last stages of linear progression you need a full 10 minutes between sets, to pray

If Rip ever decides on a career change,  he should be a kindergarten teacher.

Rippatoe channeled his inner Seinfeld lol

What I was looking for was the heart rate and I finally got it! Wait for until it gets below 100 BPM and you're ready to start the next set!

Rip's version of "Get off my lawn!"

I disagree Rip. I rested between the last rep aged 19 and the start of my next set aged 31. It didn't help me with my strength progression.

I've always went 2-5 mins. slightly faster cadence if i'm feeling top notch. People hurrying into fast rest cycles causes poor form, higher risk of injury and loss of focus because people think they have to hurry.  The fast cadence adaptation is mostly bodybuilding lure. It's functional if your going really light and pure slow twitch adaptation for endurance

I always cut down on my rest , thinking it would get me stronger, Now I know better !

I like how Rip unintentionally stumbled into the novel concept of "doing sets of more than 5 reps."

People hate to trouble others, hence "no problem". It's just a way of showing their willingness to help.

This is why people dont say thank you... cuz rip will roast you for how you said it, and then roast you for your following question lol

"No problem" is a nice way of saying that you needn't be too grateful because the thankee finds serving you easy and enjoyable and you should continue patronizing her particular work establishment. It's a couple of steps below, "no, thank YOU, sir!"

Starts at 1:32

Rip's such a wonderful, compassionate human being. 😂

When people thank me I look them right in the eye and say "Someday the quality of our work and the honesty of our word.... A handshake between strangers in a world that forgot how to trust.... They're the only tools we'll have left. It was an honor serving you...... Would you like to see our desert menu, or are you ready for the check?"
