    No offense, but you weigh 138 lbs, you squat and dead under 200lbs, and you bench 130. A Rippetoe-style full body routine would be...

    Depends on the rep range. You want it to be long enough to recover so that you can complete the desired number of reps on the next set but not long enough that you cool down.

    This may work well for beginners using light weights, but once the weights get heavy, the "add a rep" approach is inferior to the "add weight" approach.
