Build Muscle While Doing Cardio Part 1

Posted on March 31, 2010

If you are a beginner who also happens to be a split ectomorph it is suggested that you suspend cardio almost entirely for at least 8-12 weeks. First, complete your training and diet and gain some size. After doing that you can add in some cardio. It is preferable to start with three weekly sessions of twenty minutes of moderate intensity cardio. You can use a bike to limit the amount of unconventional stress on the joints.

If you are above the beginner level you should always do some kind of cardio on a regular basis. The condition may be the intervals, moderate intensity steady state, or low intensity, long duration steady state. But don’t bind yourself to machines indoors. You should also go outside. Everyone should do something like this at least three days per week for at least 30 minutes.

Opposing to what people believe cardio can be of great benefit to those who are looking to get bigger and stronger. It improves the cardiovascular system and the quality of your weight training workouts. It allows you to eat more muscle building calories while staying lean. If you want to collect 20 to 30 pounds of muscle you have to eat an excessive amount of food. Doing some cardio will ensure that you don’t get fat from all the excessive eating.

The beginners should do some kind of cardio type activity at least three times per week for 30 minutes. You should vary your activities and concentration as much as possible. You can do cardio immediately after you train. Doing it on off days is a better option because it behaves like an active recovery activity.
