Which form of cardio should I do to interfere with muscle growth the least?I've been doing 12/3/30 on the treadmill at least 4 hours after my lifting up until now. But, I've read that the elliptical distributes effort more evenly making it less impactful.The goal is bulking as much as possible while staying as lean as possible.
Neither. Walking is the best form of cardio.
>>76999838I get 15-20,000 steps already. I feel the need to supplement it though.
>>76999848Stop eating like shit and you won't have to.
>>76999857My eating is pretty dialed in already. I'm on a meal plan from my school which allows me to eat almost exclusively protein if I wanted. For reference, I'm 6'3", 174 lbs. I'm just going for as low a bf% as possible.
Less impact full? The impact is one of the reasons running is so advantageous. Signals to the body to strengthen and reinforce joints and tendons, plus a strong HGH response.
>>76999838Walking is not cardio, retardo. Walking only raises my heart rate by about 10-15bpm. Masturbating is a better form of cardio.
>>76999880My knees are fucked.>plus a strong HGH responseOther things get in the way of that, no?
>>76999892Well if your knees are fucked that changes the calculus. There's no evidence running damages your joints but for your specific scenario it might be different, gotta talk to a sports physician about it. Not a normal doctor, a sports doctor, general doctor's are hacks.And yes all exercise is catabolic, it's the hormone response that builds you back up stronger. Just gotta make sure not to overdo it, which takes an amount of cardio no one here has to worry about.
>>76999900They're not fucked enough that I can't walk on a treadmill yet. The pain is definitely there though. My primary focus, is building my physique, though. If my knees go, they go.
