This made me smile as I find 2-3 minutes between sets to be an insanely long time... in the past workouts you wrote, it was usually no more than 90 seconds. Can I shorten the intervale in this program?
Hahaha! Love it. Knowing your level of athleticism and fitness I would say that when you feel recovered (you heart rate has come down) then hit the next set. In next week's workout the rest is only 1 min. We're increasing a few variables strategically as we get deeper into the training program... volume, intensity, incremental load increases for max adaptation and benefit. If you remember, our last week of the workout is going to be your "failure" week where all those variables converge before we deload and reap the rewards. But yes! When you feel recovered begin your new set with the prescribed RPE. Here's next week's workout: https://deepkimchi.substack.com/p/jan-22-2024-week-3-of-12-week-physique

One more thought! You can also use your rest time to incorporate quick bicep and/or calf work, esp on light days!
Mostly I walk around the gym in circles to get my 10,000 steps in - your suggestion would definitely be less weird :)
