Post by: polychronopolous on October 10, 2011, 11:32:46 AM: 2 mile jog in the park three times a week.

Thinking about getting back into the 10 or 15 minute HIIT on the treadmills but it's really nice out this time of season so that will probably hold off until winter time.

If you really wanna loose weight then at least 20 min in the morning on empty stomach, every day. That's the minimum. Stairmaster is the best.

Post by: andreisdaman on October 10, 2011, 05:24:23 PM: 40 minutes on stationary bike six days a week and combine that with weight training every two days and treadmill for 45 minutes three times a week..just started three weeks ago...feel much better and much lighter
Title: Re: How much cardio do you do?
Post by: pellius on October 10, 2011, 05:31:05 PM: Can barely handle going to the gym 3x/wk so no cardio for me. But if I wanted to get epic leans I'd do cardio 3 of the 4 days I don't train. Doing cardio in a gym is incredibly boring and seems to take forever so I prefer outdoors stuff. When I had to make weight I'd go from machine to machine. So I'd do the bike for about 8-10 minute, then do the rowing machine for 5 minutes, then the stairmaster for 5, the treadmill for 5, that Nordic ski type machine that part stair part pushing with your arms for 5, then back to the rowing... and just keep moving around like that. It goes much faster because once you are on a machine and get going it's time to move to another.

This.

No need to do "cardio" in the form of stepping on a boring treadmill and start walking while facing the wall. lol

Just do your daily activities...walk to places, bike...stay active in general, move.

Post by: dustin on November 21, 2011, 12:53:52 PM: I try hopping on my wife for some horizontal cardio once or twice every evening. And I do 20 minutes of walking on the treadmill before my workouts, but more to get warm because it's cold as fuck here in Canada. I can't break a sweat or even shake the goosebumps unless I do some cardio before I work out in the colder months.

I do some higher intensity cardio for the actual cardiovascular benefits a couple times a week too. More when it's nice out. We hike the mountain trails or hit up the lakes. Can't stand "cardio" at the gym either.
