    a few seconds at best. If I have to pause that long then I just rack the weight and end the set. No point in pausing for so long.

    Here's the type of set I was talking about, for those confused about why you can't just 'breathe normally throughout the whole set.' http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qSPE3wlv_Es

    pro tip: keep a pail next to the rack so you can throw up into it.

    Also, keep a food scale and tare the bucket so you can log your puke and eat back the calories. :bigsmile:
