    Question Cardio

    Why do hardcore lifters avoid cardio?

    My personal trainer (a kiniesiologist, whom I don't use anymore) swears by it, and made sure it was part of my routine (30 min warmup/20 min cooldown-it was a killer!!) when I worked out.

    Does it inhibit anything?

    Seriously? How does it do that? (If it's not too much to explain)

    I figured it would enhance/supplement growth.

    Cardio burns calories, when you're trying to gain muscle you need to consume more calories than you burn.

    Ok, that does make sense to a point, but do calories not have a direct effect on your body fat, or am I just completely off track here?

    (BTW, your help is very much appreciated! Thanks w8lifter)
    Those who trumpet their sufferings are most deserving of misery.

    If you're trying to gain size, cardio can hinder your gains.
