As a semi pro bike racer, I do 2-5 hours of cardio per day depending on the time of year. I also do 1 hour of weight training 4 days a week. I'm also 47 years old. Averaging 15-20 hours a week of exercise. I do it because I like to. Being in shape and looking like you're in shape are 2 different things.

I will never go below 30 pushups , 50 bodysquats and 15 pullups. This is my strength check.

Doing performance based cardio like sprinting actually helps make you a stronger lifter. Builds fast twitch, explosive power, and work capacity. Aside from sprints 2-3x per week just doing regular walking daily is great for you. It doesn't trigger a catabolic response in the body, lowers cortisol, and helps speed up recovery.

Easy to say when you have the genetics to be lean. I get fat just breathing air. My diet is spot on, but my body wants to store fat regardless. My two hours of cardio per day on top of training is what keeps me in shape. I've been training for 22 years and learned the hard way that the only way for me to stay in shape is with all this cardio. Everyone's body is different and some have to work harder than others. That's life.

[@davepazz580]

I used to be the same during my bodybuilding years... I could put on muscle and body fat fairly easily and if I stopped doing any cardio work for any reason (or if I stopped working out altogether), my weight would creep up pretty quickly. And if I wanted to get really lean for summer? That meant a fairly strict diet plus 5 days of cardio a week (anything less and I wouldn't be able to make it)... Then some years later, I just stopped lifting weights entirely (got burned out by bodybuilding after so many years) and started doing calisthenics only a few times a week as my only form of exercise (I decided to stop doing any cardio whatsoever)... After a few months of this, I noticed to my big surprise that I actually became the *leanest* I'd ever been in my life, and all this without any real effort on my part (as opposed to how I had to go about it before)... all I was doing was trying to constantly improve my pull-ups, push-ups, dips and bodyweight squats and it felt as if my body no longer "welcomed" body fat accumulation as it used to. As much as people emphasize how vital cardio work is for getting lean, it wasn't until a stepped away from the typical weights + cardio paradigm that I realized it is actually possible to become lean (and do so more efficiently) than just the accepted "traditional" spending 40-60 min. on some cardio machine a few times a week.

In HS I wrestled on a team with a few genetic outliers. I was blessed with great strength. I did 28 pull ups and set the record without much effort. Another teammate had insane cardio without training. He smoked a pack of cigarettes daily, skipped runs after practice, and still ran a 5:30 mile. He never gassed out.

[@ClassicJukeboxBand]

Most people believe in cardio because of propaganda. It came from a doctor back in the 1960's named Ken Cooper who wrote a book about aerobics. His team figured out that if you exercised between 65-80 percent of your maximum heart rate, you would burn the maximum amount of fat calories per minute of exercise. His ideas started the jogging craze of the 1970's, and fitness centers with their treadmills, lifecycles, and stairmasters soon followed based on his research. The problem with Dr Cooper's idea was it was based on how much fat calories you burn while exercising. This is not what really matters. What really matters is exercising in a fashion that causes your body to get fitter. Aerobic, or cardiovascular exercise, although certainly not bad most of the time is not intense enough to improve your fitness very quickly. The whole point of exercise is to force your body to get fit quicker, because we evolved to improve our fitness rapidly if we exercise intensely. We actually accomplish getting fitter when we rest and sleep, not during the exercise. Sure, cardio will get you fit a little bit, and burn some fat, but doing it endlessly just puts pressure on your body you don't need. Cardio is just fine, but if you want to get fit quick, you need to sprint and lift weights intensely, and not too much. Evolution proves this.

[@CankleCankle]

The biggest lie in fitness is that cars kills gains. It’s just a preference in that you’re going to expend some calories doing cardio. But that expense is worth it because you’re training your heart which is kinda important when you’re tallying gains. So don’t look at it like that. Look at it like you’re making long term gains in that you’ll be able to be healthier while you’re older.

A set of 15 reps for squats. Is like running 5 miles. It taxes the cardiovascular system

[@johnnboy100]

I agree 100% ! Cardio is only as essential as to how much you eat or how much you lift depending on your goals. I have had high blood pressure, It is hereditary, bloodwork tested perfect and doctor was scratching his head. Cardio just isnt always the answer. I believe Moderate cardio may be helpful if you dont lift other wise. High intensity weight training and calories in and calories out are more important than slapping un-nesessary cardio,I just fade away, arms and legs get skinny and heart beats too fast... Less muscle burns less calories. Calories are for longevity. Blood pressure can just have a mind of its own if it is hereditary. I just lift intensely eat right and that works best for me as a natty .I also found that if I mix in multiple reps of 20 helps with endurance and that really works for me ;) Un-nesessary outside stress is what can really negatively go against your health and you need to get proper sleep or else our body can go against you. John Cena doesn't do cardio either and he was said to be one of the fittest athletes on the planet.

[@ShootingUtah]

I've always sworn some heavy deadlifts or squats will give you more intense cardio than running a mile! I'm sure there's some differences in training the endurance of the muscles when running that you won't get from squats potentially BUT, and it's a big but, if you squat 4 sets of 10 somewhere around 75-80% of your 1 rep max your heart is going to be pumping HARD! And you'll be super out of breath 🫁 especially if you push your rest time down to 1.5 minutes or so. Most people including myself just don't have the will power or want to run hard enough and long enough to get that same heart rate and breathing elevation. Running feels like you're breaking the body down rather than building it up to me. A really good cardio device is the rowing machine, if you want some good resistance/cardio a rowing machine is maybe the best. The resistance is directly dependant on how hard you pull with your arms and push with your legs. You can literally get a bicep and back pump alongside a leg pump all while getting your heart rate super high and breathing heavily and it happens pretty quickly. A 2000 meter row as hard as you can will kick most people's asses.

[@christianjames92]

The thing I never got is isn't doing a high intensity lifting session is basically a form of cardio? The heart rate is up throughout the entire session so wouldn't you get the same cardiovascular benefits or is the continuous motion of the running, swimming, biking, etc make the difference in the conventional thoughts on this.

Should I include 20 min of moderate intense cardio on elliptical for heart health 3 x week after lifting also or is the walking and weight training enough for heart health and would the cardio negate muscle gains?

Lately Hathor Bjorensen has benefitted greatly from cardio intensive workouts, and it has probably saved his life. Anyone using PED's has to factor in their sport, age, intensity, diet and health; at some point you can't deadlift 1k pounds anymore and you have to adapt to your body breaking down. If you're consuming more than 6k calories a day to be strong in your 50's for over 30 years you might be killing yourself slowly. Most runners consume less calories and can balance themselves throughout multiple athletic endeavors, where lifting heavy and looking like a Mr. Olympian demands too much on the body over time. Cardio is the answer to problems associated with lifting heavy for long periods.

[@puffybuns2311]

I will say this not doing cardio makes me Lazy. I at least need three days of cardio a week. If I lift weights and don’t do cardio after a week or so I will start to feel depressed and Lazy. Cardio is important as far as I am concerned. Take what you will from that. It also helps with fat loss and recovery.

[@timwhitmore7]

Very true. Was surprised recently to realise am getting quite aerobically fit again. Doing 30/40 mins of cardio after each session just for the endorphins, not even thinking of health. The movement definitely gets rid of that lazy, stagnant feeling. Plus, cardio helps weight training by strengthening core, knees etc - all the smaller stabilising muscles that can be missed in weight training.

I was I’ve gone through depression due to serious A serious of family loses So if u can tell .

[@dannyd938]

The only cardio I do is walk uphill on treadmill, hike outdoors, or stair master. 1-3x a week max. If you’re lifting hard and heavy and going to sauna after then you will have cardiovascular endurance.

In the middle of the 21st century, 2022, someone is talking about aerobic physical exercise and associating it with cardio, something that doesn't exist, only in America. High-intensity resistance exercise is the best and only way to work on cardiovascular fitness. Running 1 hour a day does nothing for cardiovascular health, nothing!

[@Declan50]

I run 10k’s & lift daily. I’ve seen plenty of muscular guys at races. A lot of us to both.

[@mr.winkie]

Well, I’d say cardio is more important than using illegal steroids and legal PDs and lying ur whole life to fans and family, but that’s just me.

When you are in gear you can train aerobically like a madman with weight training and not loose an inch . When your off gear do excessive aerobics and you will be beyond the point of looking gaunt. Excessive aerobics make you look 15 years older look at the runners

Nope

@@darkoale3299 nope ok your correct. Guess the young women getting face fillers from prominent plastic surgeons doctors who excessive aerobics sunk in their face is a myth. And men as well. .

It it depends on what you are talking about. If you want to win a fight against three dudes you’re gonna need a little bit of cardio.
