Resting 60 seconds was killing my workouts

I used to take 1 minute breaks cause I felt lazy scrolling my phone. But my weight would drop drastically between sets.

Recently started taking 2.5 minutes on big lifts and 2 on isolations. Feel like I'm making progress agan.

Do you guys time rests or just wait until you feel ready?

I use a timer because my natural sense of rest is either 35 seconds or somehow 8 minutes (no I don't doomscroll, ok yes I doomscroll)

I wait til I feel like I am full strength. 1 min after a heavy squat would be brutal
