Rest Time between muscle groups in XTrain

Hello,
I'm wondering if the description of "working muscle groups to complete exhaustion before moving on to the next group" means that we will be doing one exercise to complete exhaustion therefore having no rest time or stagnant workout time between exercises - - or - - will we have built in rest time between several exercises in a muscle group before moving to the next group (like Slow and Heavy).
I'll find out on my own pretty soon but I thought I'd ask.
Thanks!

Hi Jenniferlove,
I have done Bi's and Tri's, and Chest, Back and Shoulders, and they have virtually no rest period between the sets. Cathe moves from one muscle to the next, so you only work one muscle for one set, then move on to another muscle while the last muscle is resting. The advantage I notice here is that the workouts are much shorter, all under an hour, since there is no waiting/downtime in between sets.

Hi Eva,
Thank you SO much - I am so glad to hear this!
I'm starting on Saturday.
As much as I love the Slow and Heavy concept I REALLY dislike all the waiting and resting.
