4x10 you can easily do with a 2-3 minutes rest.

>>34664392
this is wrong
if you're actually lifting 80-85% of your 1rm @5 reps, you should be resting 3-5 minutes. for a 1rm attempt you should be resting anywhere from 3-8 minutes. 8-12 can be 1 minute, but more likely 2 will be better in this case.

if you're referring to 4x10 then 2-3 minutes between sets. Is there a reason you're doing 10 reps though? If you're going for 4 sets with 10 reps on something like an OHP, chances are that by the 3rd set your form is going to start being shitty if you are taking 1 minute rests. 2-3 will allow you proper recovery to get all of your sets in.

"satisfactory" doesn't mean anything. You need a goal or you're gonna end up one of those guys in the gym doing random exercises 3x10 that we make fun of. Are you in the gym to look good? are you in the gym to get strong? Sets, reps and rest times are all things that you modify to reach a goal. With no goal, it doesn't matter what you do.

This is assuming some level of intensity.

Honestly OP, there is no set time. However, the ATP in your muscles is restored after 3-5 minutes. I personally rest 2-3 minutes, sometimes 4, between sets, even my warmup. Is 2-3 minutes ideal or even optimal? Depends on your goals. If you want to lose weight, a higher intensity workout will burn more calories. The opposite is true for less intense workouts. Also, don't do OHP.
