PictureFit "it depends" lol

[@buzzmeanytime]

The Ethical Omnivore because it warms up the muscles. they need to be warmed up before any exercise. less chance of injury. warm up and stretch then lift. doing Cardio after you lift is like "helping yourself". not much effort is needed after you lift with your legs and do Cardio. your muscles have all the chemicals and lactic acid so it's easier for you to run. I ran track and the coach didn't like it when we lifted and then ran. it requires more effort when you run first. you burn more fat the faster you run because you are training the heart to pump to a certain threshold. optimal. less injuries when your muscles are warmed and stretched.

[@spencerrussell7363]

I always do a light session of cardio before weight workout (even when trying to pack on strictly mass). Studies show that lifting directly after cardio yields a higher testosterone spike than lifting by itself. This of course means faster recovery and better gains. After the weight session, lighlty stretch, and do main cardio workout, and finish with just a couple lifts to maximize that test spike then do a full routine stretch. Might be over thinking it, but I've tried several different styles and this is what leaves me feeling the best and shows best results. Maximizes strength, cardio, recovery, and flexibility.

[@tashindoblades]

One thing I feel like we seem to forget is that the mind controls the body. You can run before you lift and still perform amazingly in the weight room after. You just have to be willing to push yourself past any perceived limits you may feel.

[@lewis72751]

Facts!

[@adamrichardson3931]

I workout after a 12 hour work day of sitting. Cardio first tends to wake me up and allows me to be more energetic, plus I like the feeling of being warmed up and I continue sweating throughout my workout. I notice that I just drag through lifting if I don't do at least 20 minutes of cardio. I wonder if anyone else feels the same, most of my research points to cardio after weights. I don't really care to get huge so I'm hoping this helps me get lean. I also walk my dogs when I get home and get more cardio in. I guess its like a cardio sandwich

[@acidhead420]

I like how this channel does not demand a lifestyle like many other channels do. Keep IT op picture fit

[@GrogsWorld]

Thanks for the video. I prefer to do some light cardio for a warm up, then lift, then heavy cardio. If you do heavy cardio first, you sweat a lot, and that means leaving puddles of sweat around the gym, which is kind of rude. If you are going to do heavy cardio first, you need to hydrate before lifting weights.

[@JM-wo2bk]

Just throwing this out there, I joined a boxing gym at 198 pounds, I always do my boxing workout first which is around 2 hours and 30 minutes, after that I lift weights explosively for about 20- 30 minutes. I am now 156lbs. It's taken me about 5 months and a half to get to 156, I've maintained my current muscle mass and have been able to increase it just slightly although I have been getting stronger. If your goal is to lose weight and build extreme cardio endurance I'd suggest intense cardio first and lifting later (if you don't mind making little gains). (I do this 5 days a week)

Well no shit it depends. You need to know the factors and variables that lean it one way or another. Should you eat 4000 calories a day? It depends. Do you need it based on the various factors associated with using calories and certain goals? Then yes. Do you not need it based on those factors? Then no. The point of videos that ultimately say "it depends" is to show you various things that may influence your choice

[@deeptewari]

Hey Picturefit, can you do a video on benefits of working out in the morning versus night? A lot of people say doing cardio before you eat your first meal is the best way to burn body fat

[@jankostadinovrucks1597]

Deep Tewari You should always eat before working out in the morning. Period. If not it is bad for you and it also lowers performance which means less burned calories. He has a video on this aswell, go find it

Jan Kostadinov Rucks He said cardio. Even though you need energy to run, im sure you can run 30 min - 1 hour with an empty stomach. Just run in your own pace

[@partykrew666]

if you run in the morning, you are more likely to burn fat since your body will be in a fasted state most mornings. at night, it will be more likely to keep you up and you will just be burning calories you ate earlier that day. also, doing cardio in the morning makes you calmer for the rest of the day, so long as you dont go overboard.

I observed over the perdiod of 6 months that 2x10 min or 15-20min straight of mid-range Ergometer rowing before doing pushups has the following effects: a) it increases rep range by 1-2 of first 2 sets b) doing pushups (or cobra pushups) hurts a little less For me the steady rowing falls into 25-26 swings/min. with 11/15 load (225-245 Watts) on my Kettler rower. 5-10min rest before pushups. It somehow feels right to do rowing as a warmup.

Ive tried both and can say definitely lift first, Lifting uses so much energy, it will suffer if you do cardio first. I almost had the bar for bench press collapse on me, because i felt too weak to do my normal set after cardio.

[@anisabrous5081]

I have a question then... I've been doing a LOT of research those last months before my mother and I begin working out. I have planned for us to do calisthenics every couple of days, to get proper rest, but we also want to work on our cardio to improve our endurance. Knowing that I'm a young adult, she's a rather old one, and we're both rather new to fitness, my question is : should we do cardio between calisthenics days to maximise performance every day, or will it be too much and we should rather do it right after the resistance workouts ? But then again, is it too much to do compound calisthenics exercises 3-4 times a week with 48 hours of recovery between each workout... Hope you see this comment and help me ^.^ Either way, keep going on with whatever you wanna do on this channel, cause your vids are awesome !

[@kurtjakes]

I always run 2 miles on the treadmill before lifting weights. I find its good as a warm up but the main reason I switched from doing it after lifting was simply because necking a protein shake right after doing weights is something I like to do asap and going for a run with that in me wasn't too great.

[@Alex__James]

Definitely lifting first. If you do cardio first you will have no PCR left in your muscles, making it very difficult to lift to your normal capacity, meaning you will at best be doing toning, and weakly at that. Conversely, lifting first will tire out individual muscle groups, but the body as a whole will still be operating efficiently enough to bike, run, etc.

And as I usually do my exercises until failure I couldn't get myself to even look at the treadmill after a workout.

[@meilindasantika]

🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@DrelvanianGuardOffic]

This explains alot.. I usually do cardio first.. but I had noticed I can lift weights longer when I'm just lifting weights alone, But I never really thought about it.

[@sonicoduh1125]

What will PictureFit's next video ve about... ...well, it depends.

[@PictureFit]

hahaha

[@kyrileontiou7098]

weights first then cardio, however it can depend on your preferences and goals. you can also swtich it and do each one on different days or different hours to improve perfomance since you will have more time to recover

[@Joebrobra]

You should do a video about swimming

[@donl3130]

I prefer cardio first, because it cranks me up and the muscles aren't tired for a 40-60 minutes run (

[@spikeabdeen7036]

Thanks for a good content that I wanted to know

[@PictureFit]

You're welcome!

[@lasole3033]

There's Dynamic workouts and Static. Dynamic workouts are done first before a workout like Running, jogging, etc where as Static is done after your workouts like stretching. So I think in my opinion running first is best. Great video tho.

[@guarapo66]

Am 32 years old, and my metabolism is slower than when I was younger (obvious) so i quit lifting and only do hiit type expertise, Tabata and that stuff, I don't lift weight because I can gain muscle very quickly and am looking for an athlete type of body, not buff . But after watching this video, I have to rethink my workout routine, Am considering just doing calisthenics.,,

[@PictureFit]

Calisthenics is great!

[@alucard1490]

Ale you gain muscle easy lol

[@guarapo66]

Yeah when I lifted weight with my friends I was the weakest , always removing some weight to complete reps, but at the same time was the biggest, they hated me for that lol .

[@tashindoblades]

That's a weird thing to hate someone for lol. I'd take strength over size any day and every day.

[@mohicanstar9094]

+tashindoblades yeah who wouldn't!

[@gaminggen5807]

I had this doubt and moments after you uploaded a video about it. Thanks!

[@sahilb7396]

What if you are doing weights and hiit?

[@PictureFit]

Diff days, preferably.

[@somethingTudo]

It Depends on your goal. If you want to gain muscle, so weights first. If you want to burn fat/lose weights/ increase endurance , so cardio first. I personally like to cardio (running) first because it warms me up and it's harder than weights for me.

[@Lamassu112]

How about High-intensity interval training then Weight-lifting?

[@PictureFit]

Too intense. Either diff days or diff time of day

[@Lamassu112]

I only do like 20min HIIT (on the treadmill) followed by 20min weight lefting. I make sure to not surpass 45min. My goal is primarily to loose weight but I also want to keep the muscle mass or increase it a little.

[@PictureFit]

20 min of HIIT is already quite a lot, imo, but if your goal is to lose weight, then as long as your lifting isn't too intense, you might be able to get away with it. Keep it up!

[@Lamassu112]

Thanks

[@pauljansen6650]

Simple, just ask yourself this.....would you rather fail doing HIIT or with a heavy weight above your head?

[@anjalipatil3274]

I DO sunsalutations first which stretch & warm up my body then strength following cardio

[@567Kriss]

Next video "will the break between cardio and lifting decrease heart rate and reduce results" At my gym, the cardio machines are on the other side of the room. If I have to pee after lifting, my heart rate will slow down by the time I get over there... so should I just hold it to keep the heart rate up? Is there actually a purpose for keeping heart rate up between cardio and resistance training?

[@PictureFit]

Nope, that is one of the little thing you should spend very little thought on, if at all. Good luck!

[@jackrosenman4296]

serious question, will continue to research but based on what you know, what if the cardio is done per arnold's 10 minute oscillation routine (eliptical or bike for 30 sec going hard af, 30 sec rest, 30 sec hard af, though I end up going over 30 hard and under 30 rest each time), this really does change it imo because my cardio is a hard workout, not a slow endurance thing. I do it because I want the muscles I build to be functional and I need my body to keep up with its size, but I do not necessarily want to run a marathon while i bodybuild. so again, the question is: Does intense short-burst cardio change this perspective? I only use paced cardio to rest from the intense bursts.

[@andreask.2549]

Could you make a video about deload weeks? would help me alot!

[@PictureFit]

I'll see what I can do!

[@jeweladelsberg5866]

i usually do 25 minutes of intermediate cardio, and 30 minutes of calisthenics, or 30 minutes of weight lifting depending on the day. i have been doing dynamic movements aswell since im a lacrosse player, so i do a lot of foot work and calisthenics exercises anyways. i have been doing this strict exercise for just over 3 weeks now. i am a very athletic and muscular person already, and i have found i am still gaining muscle when i do some cardio first. hope this helps someone :)

[@waterblonk]

I do 10 minutes of cardio to warm up before resistance training. Will this diminish muscle growth?

[@gigachad8873]

waterblonk no

[@user-ub6pr3cg4y]

I like what you did in the end with the donut.

[@ciute1679]

wait I know the answer: it depends. ^^
