Guys, What does the "12-Min" bit in "5 reps (10RM) for 12-Min" mean? I got it from the following routine.. http://www.muscleandfitness.com/workouts/workout-routines/6-week-fat-blast-workout-routine?page=0 Would you take it it as being "rest pause training"? Any pointers much appreciated.

The ones using that notation are super-sets. So its not rest-pause.

I read it that you go A1, A2, A1... for 6 minutes on week one, then 8 mins week 2 and so on. It's 5 reps at a ten rep max, and the pairs are unrelated, you'll need little rest.

It's a silly way to note it imo. Just do 3 sets in week 1, and add a set each week.
