I remember when I was younger and I never did cardio. I would go into the gym and do weights Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and just do weights on a 2 on one off schedule. I would do chest, shoulders, and triceps one day and back, biceps and legs the second day. And again I did no cardio.

I did so little cardio that there was a woman bodybuilder in the gym that we would talk to and she said that she did 2 hours of cardio a day. I was shocked that this was even possible for someone that lifted weights to do.

times for me have changed a bit. Now I do three sets per muscle group three times a week so my workouts are only around 45 minutes or so and I do get cardio on my mountain bike or indoors on the elliptical trainer. I believe that now my workouts are much more focussed and I listen to my body more so that I do not risk overtraining like I really did back then. Read the rest of this entry »
