im 54, weigh in at 260, and strong as a ox. but, i have to climb 5 flights of stairs everyday to get to a roof top to check out some air conditioning. by the time i get to the roof, im really breathing hard. i cant talk for about 2 minutes as i keep walking on the roof. i finally get my breath back, and im fine.
i lift 5 days a week, for 50 minutes. i end each work out with 10 minutes on the treadmill, probally slow running for 6 minutes and 4 minutes of fast walking.
(its not much cardio i know) should i drop a lifting day and make it a staight cardio day? should i run outside, or is the teadmill ok. shoud i do interval training on the treadmill? or just try and run as long as i can? thanks for any info.
54 and 260? Brotha,trust me when I tell you,any one that is that big at that age is not sprinting..
Lose weight.. Unless you need to be that big for whatever reason(strongman,pro bodybuilder),you will have that problem forever.. You can be 225/230 and still be the biggest strongest guy around.. You will also feel better..
