    Cardio it really works!!!!

    I've always been one of those guys that doesn't have to worry much about body fat and I always viewed cardio as something that takes up my time from lifting.
    Here lately, I've been working around so many different injuries, I decided to do cardio instead of just taking days off from the gym and it really helped and gave me advantage on lifting. Legs don't really get sore after a heavy leg day and I can workout a lot faster without getting near as fatigued! Who would have thought; it really works.

      I do cardio every morning. Don't like it very much but I watch a movie and time flies.

          Cardio is considered a catabolic exercise. Now, I’ll be honest, when my friend told me this, I didn’t know what it meant either, but it’s basically just a fancy way of saying that cardio is a process that breaks down both fat and muscle.

          Going for a run, hitting the trails for a hike, swimming, or even taking a joy ride on your bike are all considered forms of catabolic exercises. Although these exercises break down fat and sometimes muscle if done too much, they’re important for keeping a healthy heart and set of lungs.

            I always force myself to do 30 minutes vigorous cardio the day after heavy-ish lifting. Especially legs. As said, helps flush lactic acid out and I do not get as sore.

              Cardio cleans out the cell mitochondria which is basically the liver of the cell...in this instance cardio assists with muscle growth

                Older I get the more important I find it to be. I’m on the slow road to cardio recovery meaning I’ve neglected this area way too much!

                  I'm starting to do same thing I never did any cardio but I just turned 50.
                  Think it's time to start doing things to improve general health not just build muscle

                    It’s great to hear how incorporating cardio has had such a positive impact on your fitness journey! It’s common for lifters to prioritize weights over cardio, but your experience shows how it can complement and even enhance strength training. By boosting cardiovascular endurance, you’re improving your overall recovery and work capacity, which explains why leg day feels less taxing and your sessions are more efficient.

                    Cardio’s benefits for lifters often get overlooked, but it’s fantastic that you’re seeing how it can reduce fatigue, support injury recovery, and improve performance. Who would’ve thought, indeed! It’s all about finding that balance that works best for your body and goals. Keep up the great work! ‍♂️​
