    How important is Cardio for a skinnier guy

    Hey, i've been working out a few months. A trainer recently told me, cardio done twice a week would be benenficial to get rid of flab. Even though i'm smallish (5'10 150 lbs) do you think i need much cardio. As of now i just play sports sparingly, never use any cardio equipment.

    You may be skinny, but if you can still have a high BF%. Make sure you have a good lifting routine, and eat clean foods high in protein, EFA's and moderate carbs (mainly from whole wheat/grains). In addition to that, cardio will help you rid some more BF for sure

    A skinny guy should do more cardio then a fat guy, its because the less fat you have the more the body wants it... just like mcdonalds the less of them you eat the more you want.

    I would sudjest eat very clean about 2500 calories and do cardio of 45mins every day

    You will see very quick gains in LBM this way......................
