Cardio

if on keto, i know its low intensity and lengthy sessions, but what is optimal and what is bare essential time wise ?

i do 40-45min every morning when dieting , i see alot of guys that compete do 45min am and then 45min midday as well as there weight training

Cardio is a fat loss tool. You should only really introduce it after you have stopped losing 1kg/week on keto (excluding the initial +/-2kg water weight drop).

You should start with fasted cardio for 20 mins everyday. Add 10min per week if you find fat loss slowing. Once you hit 30 min divide the sessions in two and do the second session directly after weight training.

Remember not to go over 120bpm.

thanks bigdave,

dont understand what you mean by this line :

You should start with 20 mins everyday fasted every day

My bad, grammatical error, edited.

Fat loss tool it is, I am in a predicament, my training partner wants do do cardio and i don't since I am on my Bulking cycle, so I comprimize and do as heavy as possible as many as possible the result is me beeing totally fucked after gym and him laughing at me really you need to see it to appreciate the Image, cannot tell the dude I am on juice he is twice my size and I Do Step climbes with a 26 Dumbell in each hand he has a 12Kg?? He thinks I am grazy, HAHA :silly:

Another quick,just finalizing my next bulk cycle,dj going to follow the bulk diet we did just upping calories to around 4000 mark.

I am concerned about gaining to much fat,slin does that,will be eating as clean as possible but being a bulk I am sure cheat meals here and there.the t3 and gh I am hoping will help keep me lean.

Do you guys / gal see any benefit other than heart health in throwing in 3 x 45min low intensity cardio sessions a week as well?I am pushing for 115kg but don't want to be stripping off 10kg of fat at the end.

geared up its a difficult one to do judge,u are eating high calories so to do cardio would seem less benefitial,just cut back on the calories slightly and u will be good to go...

Thanks dj,think will play it by ear,adjust diet if needed,eat cleaner ,last resort throw in some cardio.
