    When working larger muscles like pecs, lats, quads etc 2-5 min, depending on the intensity/reps etc.

    Smaller muscles like biceps, shoulders, triceps 1-3 is good.

    Also, nutrition matters. If I'm working out fasted or during a cut then my recovery time between sets is longer because I just feel more fatigued (duh).

    Long enough that you can go again, not so long that you go cold. Could fall anywhere from 1-5 minutes. It's not super important. Just don't let your heart rate get too low.

    As others have said there's a range. If you run a periodized program you'll probably do lower rests at high volume and long rests at high intensity.

    What kind of autistic question is this?
    You rest until you feel ready to do another set. Do you need charts with peer reviewed studies backing everything you do?

    Usually 2-3 minutes.

    Even longer if you do specialized speed strength stuff.
