So how's your cardio going, Veeky Forums?

i'm talking in real life you fucking cunt

it's an ad, you tard

B-be nice user

>massive calves
>a bad thing

I'm actually predisposed to small inner calves. I can gain on the outside of my leg but the inside hardly change.

Ran a 6:19 mile last week.
Feelsfuckinggoodma.edu

The inside is the biggest part.

Just started, going to do it 2 times a week

This. So many people go running without even clue about technique or joint health.

Not for me it ain't

I run 4,4 km every day im not lifting (4 days/week)

Just doing it for calorie expendature really so i can eat more because cutting.

I can do it in like 21 minutes now.

>You ARE doing cardio, right?
I lift and push the prowler. long slow distance cardio is for fags and also completely unnecessary for most people

Heavy compounds raise my heart rate and blood pressure for my hour workouts four times a week.

Cardio is pointless.

Going well. Swimming and running here.
I hate running though, so I only do it one a week.

You do know your heart beats faster if you push yourself at the gym, right?

The only way I'll ever do "cardio" is if I live by the ocean.

i developed tendonitis at shins about 2 years ago when i was running on inclined treadmil, they never healed, now i cant run more than 5 mins without shins getting swolen and hard as rocks
the meme is true, cardio kills gains

Conditioning is a sham:
t-nation.com/training/conditioning-is-a-sham

My heart rate and blood pressure are through the roof 24/7 bro.
Do you even salt your food? No exercise needed, so I'm in top condition all the time.

Almost all the routes I used since fucking highschool are cramped with some fucking faggots and bitches who run just because it became hip.

Only one remained untouched, just because it looks kind of like pic related, and no one beside me knows safe passages.

Shin splints...that's not tendonitis, it's the bone. stress fracture maybe. Get an xray and then MRI. If you wanted to heal it you could've in a month or two but you're just lazy as fuck

I do 20 mins on whenever machine is available, 3 times a week. Im previously a runner and do 15km everyday and that was the worst part of my life

this week i began my new routine, 30-40 mins of hiking 3 times a week on rest days, nice fun cardio and easier on the joints, seriously fuck running, it fucked up my knees, i see people here running 5 or 7 miles a day and i just think i'd die.

I'm 120 lbs, of course I don't do fucking cardio.

i know what shin splints are. ive taken an MRI scan on shins, bones and muscles are all good. i can walk for long times with no pain, but power walking or running swell the shins so bad its impossible to walk without resting. i havent done proper cardio in 1-2 years, just went to gym and back, they cant seem to heal. even took 2 weeks break for gym.

from* gym

also what do u mean im lazy as fuck?

At it for 12 days, starting from couch.
Went from 2k wheezing and puffing at 6:30/km to 4k feeling ok at 5:40/km so far.

Still hate running but gotta get rid of 6-7kg.

>Still hate running but gotta get rid of 6-7kg.
you know your running isn't really doing shit for your weight loss, right? it's just a few hundred calories per workout, roughly equivalent to a small snack. you should lift instead, it provides more benefits.

Pretty good. Just heading out for a run in fact.

It's a little frustrating because I'm at this weird place where my CV system can handle more volume than my legs atm, but I'm patiently building.

>massive calves
>a bad thing

KoTH has an episode for everything.

true. unfortunately running won't build massive calves.

Run on grass or sand dipshit

Thinking of running something between 5 and 10 km today senpaitachi

Where can I watch King of the Hill without torrenting?

elliptical and bike will

kisscartoon.me/Cartoon/King-of-the-Hill/S11E11-Bill-Bulk-and-the-Body-Buddies?id=6932

I've always been doing some bodyweight stuff at home, but never cut. I've started tracking calories and weight now to hold myself accountable.

Also signed up for gym 2 days ago, getting a proper intro to their shit tomorrow.

that has to be the most shit running form. Just look at the guy wtf is going on with him.

>be me
>have fucked up toenails
>can't run without bleeding
>be fronk yong fan
>decide to do imaginary jump rope
>it's actually better than classic jump rope
>mfw

nope. doing anything for thousands of reps won't build shit.

It's amazing how the bodybuilders are everything Veeky Forums strives to be.

Cycling master race here

Was riding 20 miles a day, 5 days a week last year. Need to get back into it.

A few hundred calories adds ~50% to a normal weight loss deficit.

why do people get so butthurt on this board when people bring up cardio?

>NOOOO CARDIO IT KILLS MAH GAINS AND GIVES U SHIN SPLINTZ!!!

i've been running everyday after lifting for the past 3 months (3+ miles a day, 100+ miles a month). boxers run way more than this and are fine.

cardio is the best thing to ever happen to me. it's honestly like therapy and relaxes my mind completely and helps me focus on improving my life. ever since i've started doing cardio my focus on self-improvement has sky rocketed. 3.9 gpa, been sending out resumes like crazy, got an internship lined up for the summer, social gains off the wall, gains are coming in better than ever.

you retards need to stop thinking cardio is used just as a "gains goblin" and embrace the mental gains you can gain from it.

>some fucking faggots and bitches who run just because it became hip

because you're on Veeky Forums, i assume you're not running for the love of it either. what makes you think you're any better than them?

Only just started doing cardio again so starting slow.

Starting by running 1.2 miles every day after gym, then after a week upping it to 1.5, then after a week upping it again, and so forth.

>Enjoy your bleeding nippers, shin splints, massive calves and destroyed knees by 40 cardio bunnies.
OP said cardio, retard, i.e. Swimming, cycling, sprinting. Not long distance marathon running, which is virtually the only way these problems can arise (provided that you aren't 100 pounds overweight).

Absymal

Because most people here dont seek health, more of like decreasing body fat to dangerous levels and gaining mass.

Underrated kek

i want to do LISS cardio and get ripped but i also like seeing my lifts go up

2x weekly prowler sprints and hour long walks outside it is then

i played football yesterday and rekt my knee tendons. Knee is still swollen today and i cant walk on it properly. I'm taking this as a sign that cardio isnt for me

Cardio is literal torture

About 30 minutes on the elliptical every couple of days.

bruh the guy is far from the camera, you wouldn't be able to see any imperfections from that distance

idiot

Retards crying about knee pain during cardio

They don't realize there's other forms of cardio like swimming, circuits, etc?

I only do it cause I want to get cut faster

but fuck running, just some steady state cardio after I lift or on rest days. running on a treadmill is shit, I can only do that outdoors.

I run 10k in 44 minutes twice a week and a 5k in 20 once a week.
Besides that I warm up for 10 minutes on the arc trainer before weights and I wall my dog.
Plenty of cardio.

fun as fuark. My cardio is basketball and badminton

Week 2 of couch to 5k and it's going pretty smoothly. Here's hoping that if I keep it up I'll be able to do a 15k obstacle course in December

swim

>badminton
No homo, right?

I fucking hate long distance running. I quite enjoy running up to 2km, but anything above that is fucking bullshit. My feet start hurting after a while, my thighs get chafed because legs stay together when I keep slower pace and I get bored as fuck.
How do I learn to like running?

A-a-are you the one they used to call Smeagol?

>can run a mile in 5:30
>can run 2 miles in 12:20
>run 5 miles in 32:00
>run a 4.7 5-10-5 shuttle
and i still lift more than 90% of you fags

all these people making excuses about why they dont run
>muh shins
>muh joints
bitch if you train legs neither of those will be injured. i can squat heavy and the next day go and run 5 miles with a weight vest. its all about your form and your leg strength

>this is coming from a 400lbs powerlifter
Talk about health

Anyone know an app that can calculate my distanced traveled?

D-don't be rude sempai he was joking :(

super manly sport bruu

My cardio is going ok, I cycle around 15-20k to warm up before martial arts practice.

You're obviously black, so it's genetic.

runkeeper

High altitude cardio master race here.

But seriously though. Try running a minimum of 1 mile a day for one month, and you will be amazed how much your endurance is improved. That cardiovascular improvement carries over to every other aspect of working out.

>running about 15-20 miles a week, HIIT sprints up hills on Thursdays. Then I lift and swim most days throughout the week.

Best shape I've ever been in.

Thanks

nah man im whiter than a ghost

Nice trips, but please improve your time.

Six miles today after chest and arms baby boi.

>be suicide mood today
>do 45 minutes run at heavy sweating level
>suddenly motivated
Fucking magic.

>tfw lifting is easy
> cardio requires willpower and endurance
> failing at couch to 5k
Help Veeky Forums

by implying that is impressive, you've embarrassed us all on your behalf.

implying its not

I cardio twice a day every day just because I have a pt test next Wednesday that's a 3 miles run and pullups. After that itshit 6 months of gains again until the fall fitness test

Lol why is she half naked

MUHREEEEENZ

It's been going amazing actually! I found this guy on youtube who posts these hiit workouts that you can do on an elliptical that only last a few minutes but burn a shit ton of calories during and after the workout. All you do is download the videos and listen to them while doing cardio. I highly recommend those of you cutting to do this instead of those long ass cardio routines. Do it at the end of your workouts each day and you'll melt off fat.

Here's the one I've been doing:
youtube.com/watch?v=5wi6kARs7Us

is walking for an hour and doing shopping and then walking back home with shoppings in hands considered cardio? Bc I did a 3 hour cardio session then. Then drank a litre of goat milk

I work for Canada Post as a letter carrier. My job literally has me walking about 18km per day.

Going well
Just finished a 3km run (prefer intensity over endurance so ran it in 12 minutes in a hilly area)
Lift every second day and run in between those days

I run a 49 second 400
Only lost 1.5 seconds since grade 12 ended and I prioritised study
Step up
