Can i get an idea of people's cardio? I want to build muscle and gain. Is there a cycle or daily regiment that people have had success with? I do want to burn my excess fat

For four months I've been doing opposing muscle groups on work out days (eg back and chest, biceps tris and shoulders, all legs). I think i am about to change to complimentary muscle groups for a…Continue

Hey fentris - Thats very helpful. for the past 4 months or so ive been really getting intense about building. I think starting at the end of july, I am going to start my first bulking phase. Until then im just trying to eat and lift as much as i can…

Fentris Lane replied to Andrew Bader's discussion 'Cardio'

Hi Andrew - Cardio can be done in various forms. From duration, intervals, HIIT. The trick is to find out a balance of any of those 3. If your trying to build muscle, you may have to cycle the cardio session between short-and-sometimes longs…

Brandon Ray replied to Andrew Bader's discussion 'Cardio'

As a submission grappler and crossfitter; I like to use a variety of cardio methods. I despise the cardio machines in the gym so I prefer sprints, bodyweight circuits, strongman movements ect. I find these burn fat as well as aiding in a more dense,…

Man.... I used to love cardio but now that "i have" to do it.... i rebel!!! lol... but i do it! i think HITT on any machine will do great if you just immerse yourself in it... I just started doing what Melanie does with jump rope..... that…

Melanie Matheny replied to Andrew Bader's discussion 'Cardio'

I think I dream cardio too. I hope it's burning extra!!!! Bummer when you wake up tired tho. I love jump rope and with a little practice you can incorporate strength moves into jump rope too. Competition ropers do push ups and donkey kicks with…

Amen to this (outside the gym)...blaze it up on the track or HIIT hillwork!!!

Apr 22, 2010

Ben Whitney replied to Andrew Bader's discussion 'Cardio'

I like to mix it up too. In the gym I will do HIIT cardio on the stair stepper or do "regular" lower intensity cardio on the elliptical or bike machine. Also on some days I will go for a bike ride so I can actually see something besides…

Andrew Bader replied to Andrew Bader's discussion 'Cardio'

awesome! thats a lot for the insight! Good luck! I will definitely try some of that. some sort of cardio cycle on top of the lifting cycle.

Quan Ngo replied to Andrew Bader's discussion 'Cardio'

Ahhh...Gotcha. Well, I too am experimenting as we speak (First show); we will see if the science project worked in a few weeks. Depending on what I have time for I'll do LISS on a tread or Stepper or Stepmill (Gauntlet), MISS on a tread or…

Andrew Bader replied to Andrew Bader's discussion 'Cardio'

Thanks for the response man. Yea im definitely aware that ill need to experiment. I am looking for examples of what people have been experimenting with to start out. Eventually I'll definitely come up with my own thing. Thanks again!

Apr 21, 2010

Quan Ngo replied to Andrew Bader's discussion 'Cardio'

You'll get a plethora of different answers and methods on this particular topic imo. I'm not sure one particular method works for everyone, could be a hybrid of multiple forms of cardio, etc. Ranges from LISS, MISS, HIIT, or a combination…

Ben Whitney replied to Andrew Bader's discussion 'Age old question!'

Carb cycling is a good way to lose some fat without losing too much muscle. I like to go low carb (about 1 gram per pound of bodyweight daily is what I do) for 3 or 4 days then have one higher carb day (around 2 grams per pound daily). That seems to…

Andrew Bader replied to Joseph Darling's discussion 'need help on workout question(recovery)'

thats great. I was always worried about recovery time doing that. Ive been doing the same 1, 2, 3 off then break for a couple days, then 1, 2, 3. Ill definitely start trying it consecutively.

Ben Whitney replied to Andrew Bader's discussion 'Opposing/complimentary muscle groups'

My normal split is opposing muscle groups just like the split you described. I personally think it works great, one muscle group is being stretched while the other is being worked. I dont care much for the complimentary muscle group split because I…
