Chin Up Protocol question (rest periods)

[BenpMelton]

Hello - Sorry to post another thread about this topic, I've searched many of them and can't find an answer to this simple question:

How long should the rest periods be between these "submaximal" sets of chins? I did my first round today, and did sets of 5 with about a 1 minute rest in between. When that got too hard I lowered down to sets of 3-4 with 45-60 seconds in between. I did 35 chinups total. Is there something I could be doing differently here?

I walk a lap to time my rest. Figure out a 2-minute lap and use that.

Okay, 2 minutes it is - thank you. Looks like this will be more of a more time consuming endeavor than I expected, but that's worth it if it knocks out this damn near 4 months of golfer's elbow.

So I’ve just completed my 5th session of this protocol, done as precisely to a tee exactly the way Rippetoe describes it. I’ve made it up to about 50 total chins before I’m just completely cooked and can’t keep going - my elbow hurts worse than it did before I started. Should I be doing something different?

How many reps were your sets, how many sets, and how long did you rest?
