Not sure if it’s an age thing (I’m mid 20s) but I thought it was normal to wait 1-2 minutes between sets for weight lifting?

I’ve now had 4 different people (age 55+) at UWS locations complain that I’ve been on a machine or bench for too long - but usually I take 5-7 mins for my entire exercise. I also make it a big deal to not use my phone in between sets.

I always try to be polite and respectful, asking if they want to work in with me, but to be honest I’ve had some pretty rude interactions.

What is the appropriate amount of time to be at a specific machine?
