Should I keep up my Cardio while bulking up?

My buddy and I are about to cycle Pro Magnon. He never does Cardi and actually has a tough time keeping weight on, and I get a mid-section if I don't watch it. So I normally do at least a half hour a day on the bike on lift days and off days.

Should I keep up my Cardio during the cycle? Prolly a elementary question to y'all but I'm gonna ask it anyway.

I'd say do only 2-3, 30 minute low intensity cardio sessions (walking is fine) at best. This is good for nutrient partitioning. I personally when going on a bulk, leave the cardio in, but only with the above. Now that I am in contest prep, it gets raised by a day or so. Whats your macro ratio look like?

do some low intensity cardio for your health....it'll also improve your respiratory system and heart rate wich is good in strength training....
