If all I cared about was fiber damage then I would stick to keeping the lactic acid levels up and the shorter rest periods.

When you talk about density relating to shorter rest periods. Are you talking about resting neural tone in your muscles? So what I get out of this is shorter rest periods = more toned. But I completely understand longer rest periods for compounds movements only makes sense. Guess were talking about supplemental exercies for shorter rest periods here.
