| lightbleeder said: I lift weights, my routine is back and triceps 2 days a week and chest, shoulder and biceps 2 days a week, I do 200 ab crunches with some weight 2 days a week and almost always do 30 mins of cardio to burn 400 calories before starting with the weights, I have about 11% of body fat... Oh and I aim for 3 sets of 8 reps for every muscle except abs, for abs I do 10 sets of 20 reps with 10 kilos on my chest |
Its actually better to lift then do cardio. Glycogen is what our muscles use for energy, when we run out of glycogen our bodies use fat for energy (thats a good thing.) So if you lift before cardio you will deplete your glycogen stores and then when you do cardio you'll burn strait fat.
