It depends on your goals. If you're a powerlifter, then you need merely maintain an acceptable level of cardioresperatory conditioning that allows you to perform whatever activities you must during the rest of your life without become excessively fatigued. If you're a marathon runner, then you can do cardio every day. I wouldn't be running 12 miles every day or anything, but your body can tolerate quite a lot of cardio.

You don't need to do any form of cardio in order to achieve that goal. However, something like 2-3 days per week is probably fine if you just want to speed up the process a little bit. I highly suggest looking into sprinting or interval training. I love these 2 forms of cardio, but I still do solid state a little bit as well.

If you are losing fat but keeping muscle the scale wont go down but your waist line and such will. Remeber, muscle is denser. Focus on fat loss, not weight loss.Optimum Sports Performance
