make sure you keep yourself warm and stretched inbetween your sets. If you are resting too long you could end up lifting cold and doing yourself a injury

Having a spotter will help as well. Sounds a good way to go to me

If you are taking longer, but still getting the same exercises in, then you should be more rested and could have a go at increasing the weights used.

Exactly, the little extra rest should do you good and in turn probabyl enable you to lift more each set.

i got up to an hour and a half on my back days, wouldnt worry about it as long as your not lifting less. keep the weights heavy and it shouldnt matter. if it was 3 hours though, then i would be worried.
