Deadlift : rest between reps

[Hannahp21]

How long of a rest between reps is too long before a rep isn’t considered part of the “set”

I usually take 1-3 seconds between reps to reset and brace, but sometimes as long as 5-10 seconds

no hard rule here and depending on who you speak to its subjective.

few seconds between most reps, several seconds between the last difficult reps towards RPE 10

As long as it takes to reset and pull. Likely requires more time the heavier you start to lift.

I would say my rest right now is under 3 seconds, but I'm also not lifting monster weight.

As mentioned there is no rule but the longer you take between sets it become a different protocol,rest pause reps instead.
I like that your reset between each rep,that ensures good solid form for the next one compared to touch and go reps.

It's up to you. It's good practice to fully reset the motion at the bottom--the whole bouncing deadlift thing can cause a lot of other issues, and there's not really any need for it, so just practice controlled reps.

Personally, if I complete a rep and then need more than 5 or so seconds to prep myself for the next one, I just call that failure and start my rest time

For different perspective, here's Matt Gary's take on deadlift training.

TL;DR, his athletes primarily do tons of singles with relatively short rest periods for increased specificity.

Same here, I re-grip between each rep get in position and pull again. If I feel I’m taking time to rest, rather than reset, then I call it a set and take a few minutes.
