When Should I do My Cardio?

When Should I do My Cardio?

Q -I train 3-4 times a week and do cardio on training and non-training days. When should I add my cardio in on training days, before or after I workout?

A – Well personally I do not think it matters much, but over the years hearing individual opinions on this matter I’ll let you know what other people think is best. Let’s say you are going to train your lower body today. If you are using the same muscle for weight training as you would for cardio, then you should workout first. Weights will preserve muscle when you are dieting, whereas cardio does not. But if you decide you would like to work upper body instead, then jump on the treadmill prior to your workout. Nowhere does it say that one must come before the other. We are all different and if cardio before your workout rather than after makes you feel better than doing it after, then that is what you are going to do! I hope this helps.
