Ideally, a person should aim for a 1:1 work/rest ratio when strength training. This means that if it takes 90 seconds to do your 8 to 12 repetitions, the rest period should be at least 90 seconds. If the person training is just beginning, then this ratio should be extended to 1:1.5 or even to a 1:2 work/rest ratio.
