During circuit training, the long rest (2 - 3 minutes) between sets required for optimal set performance is used to address other exercises or muscle groups.

Acute Variables: Circuit Training

The advantage of circuit training protocols is a reduction in session time by 35 - 60 %. This is especially true when attempting to allow for an ideal amount of rest between sets for similar muscle groups (2-3 minutes).
