Using the rest, pause method in your training

The Rest Pause Method is a great training method to utilise if your looking to maximise your sessions and stimulate your muscle fibres, pushing your limits even further.


The rest pause method is when in one set you perform multiple mini sets. For example, in this video I am performing a Seated DB Lateral Raise.


I start with 10 reps, rest 20 seconds, perform my second round of 10 reps, rest 20 seconds again and perform another round of 10 reps (which by my facial expressions left me sore but with a juicy shoulder pump).


The rest pause method has been proven to be effective in increasing muscular endurance, creating higher workloads, increasing muscular activation, and overall making your session more time efficient with much more effectiveness.


Give it a try and let me know how you go.


Yours in health,



Coach Alex Kassis
