Cardio for Weightlifter & Natural Bodybuilder?
My answer is WHY NOT?
I just finished 45 mins low intensity jogging under the sun.
What is cardio?
Cardio can be low-intensity cardio, can be high-intensity cardio.
Low-intensity cardio can be walking, jogging, walking uphill, walking on the treadmill...etc.
High-intensity cardio can be running, sprinting, Strongman training, skipping, kickboxing, Crossfit, Circuit Training, aerobic class, spinning...etc.
That's why I add #BJJ into my program. I treat it as my cardio.
You can see that there are many different ways to do cardio.
Low-intensity cardio is for my Active Recovery Day. As a Master Weightlifting, I just CANNOT lift heavy weight every day. Just can't. I cannot recover from the heavy lifting.
During the covid19, the gym is closed, I have to jog on the Active Recovery Day. I have to make sure the intensity is low that doesn't affect my performance on the next day.
Before the pandemic, I did #olifts two days and one day for upper-body #hypertrophy. Hypertrophy literally was on the Active Recovery Day.
I always do low-intensity on Sunday before going to church.
Adding cardio into my program, here are the reasons:
• Maintain my body fat%
• Keep the NEAT high
• Improve my recovery between sets
• Mental health
• For the heart function. The heart is a muscle.
• I don’t hate cardio anyway. I use it when I need it. According to the Neurotyping system, I'm not Type 1A or 1B, so, I can run and I can lift.
• I used to be a competitive rower, I hate I cannot run.
• I also have a goal, I want to run 10km with my son when he is 18. And he cannot beat me.
