You can rest between body parts. So if you do legs and need a few minutes to catch your breath before you do chest that’s fine. But growth comes from properly fatiguing the muscles so less rest for the same muscle is best. And if you do high intensity training, which is about going to failure, then you only need one set so resting doesn’t matter. Unless you need to a drop set but those don’t have resting time.
