Do your cardio guys. I cant believe I'm this out of shape. I thought just because I had some muscles and low bf% I would have SOME stamina and endurance
I would recommend all of you try to run for even 5 fucking minutes if you just lift., you'd be suprised how hard it is
Pretty embarrassed with myself and going to start training for endurance, and just eat more food to maintain bulk
Nothing you have posted tells my why I should waste my time doing cardio.
If i run a lot no one knows, people can see my muscle however. As far as health benefits go, you get enough cardiovascular from lifting, it doesn't matter.
There is no reason to be able to run miles.

How long are you breaks between sets, if your heart is not beating fast the whole time.
Cameron Wright

Jonathan Roberts
You're supposed to do cardio on a cut tho. Don't tell me you got to 15% through diet alone user. That would suck.
Adrian Butler
About 2 min, how fat are you if your heart can't recover in that time?
>Strength training as a component of a cardiac rehabilitation program is well-recognized by clinicians; however, it is now just coming to the forefront of preventive medicine for its profound effect in reducing the risks of cardiovascular disease.
Sebastian Wood
I think you laughing about how the other guy "is wrong" is far funnier than what you are laughing about.
Jordan Cook
Okay so to test, I did cardio for the first time in 6 months, I ran for 15 minutes. No issues.
I think you're just in bad health.
James Lewis
Lift heavy.
Why do I need to run for 5 mins?
Why is this funny?
You don't need cardio on a cut.
Kevin Harris
You must be really out of shape dude, women don't run very fast.
Also your story is disappointing because you didn't bang your girlfriend's sister. 2/10
Lucas Watson
Clearly you do need cardio on a cut in order to prevent situations like the one you posted.
Dylan Thomas
Im a fatasfatass who hasnt done any cardio in 1.25 years and i can bang out two 7:30 miles with a rest in between idk what op is sayibg
Dylan Brown
Wow what a story thanks for sharing
Julian Miller
I do eliptical for 30 minutes and then do my regular lifts. It takes me about an hour and 15 minutes in total. I have noticed I feel a lot better then normal even though I am lifting less just as a precaution.
If strength is a goal, this may be a problem, if you're cutting like I am, then it's just the smart thing to do.
Jack Fisher
I Just eat less food cutting. I don't do cardio.
If I get hungry I drink coffee, and that totally 100% stops any hunger pangs.
I now realize the error of my ways, hence this thread.
But yeah dude it's not even that hard to cut without cardio. It's just bad for your endurance/stamina
Maybe dude. What's wrong with me? I'm sitting at 17% bodyfat now, 3 months into a bulk, it's not like I'm a fat fuck
Anthony Diaz
Is epiltical the best form of cardio?
Literally running with arms and legs but on air so you don't damage does Joints
Jace Allen
You clearly haven't read those links, the 1st states that resistance training doesn't put much stress on the cariovascular system >Therefore, an emphasis on the development of muscular strength and endurance rather than aerobic capacity may be justified in preparing patients to return to independent living A small increase in the cardiovascular system is obviously going to occur buts it's like jogging for strength.
The 2nd link says the same thing but simplified for people like you
Ethan Carter
Not OP, can't you infer that from my post?
Owen Jackson
Neither of you read those links, shut up. Weightlifting gives moderate cardiovascular. The health benefits you get from cardio you can get through weight training as long as you aren't taking your sweet as time between sets.
Ryan Edwards
>dies from running too much
Brody Price
lmfao ded
Cooper Hernandez
The benefits but not the actual training. If your buddies want to play basketball or soccer, your ass will gas out in 15 minutes.
Cardio + Weights.
Brayden Myers
I don't know what it is, I'll go balls to the fucking wall in the gym, but any physical activity outside of it, fuck that.
Never playing sports with my buddies, prefer to drink or do something sedentary.
Only "cardio" i'm doing is fucking.
Tyler Morales
XDDDD HAHAHAHAHA SO FUNEH!
JUST GOT HERE FROM REDD.IT AND I CANT STOP LAUGHING LAMO ROFL COPTER IM FUCKING DED!
Connor Martin
>Loser can't run for more that 2 minutes >tries to convince other it is so important >runs purely for a girl he will never get Fuck off faggot all of /fit weight loss is through diet and adding extra reps and sets.
Isaac Martinez
>As far as health benefits go, you get enough cardiovascular from lifting, it doesn't matter.
The point that the OP is trying to make is that no, you can't.
Nathan Jenkins
That's because you are unfit and can't hack sports
Jack Miller
??? I'm in the same boat as that guy, fucking hate sports, love lifting and jump roping. What the fuck are you talking about.
Matthew Robinson
So because someone doesn't like something, they suck at it? Terrible assumption to make, I hate my job, even if I am very good at it.
Dylan King
Iktf OP. This summer I was lifting, running, hiking and being very active, but I live in the Pacific Northwest, so it started raining about a month ago and won't stop for another 8 months. I have been lifting but stopped doing cardio entirely and started smoking a lot more and I went on a bike ride the other day and it kicked my ass, even though it was a pretty light ride
Aiden Ross

Cooper Ward
Your natural cardiovascular genetics have a lot to do with it. My dad was a marathon runner so even if I don't do any real cardio for months, I can at least run a few miles from scratch, sprints takes a few months for me to build up speed again though.
Angel Brown
You can't "hack" comedy.
Nathan Howard
y u so mad brah? is your diabetes acting up again?
Luke Cruz
That you?
Colton Richardson
long distance running is for slow people
Cooper Taylor
You cant even meme
Ryder Richardson
It's not porn. Original image the girl is wearing a skirt, and posed over the water spray as a joke.
Levi Scott
Swimming is better for cardio, but elliptical is pretty close and more accessible
Bentley Bailey
So none of you niggers do any HIIT or martial arts then? I have a bodyfat percentage of high 20s, and I can run 3 mile and still speak / be human / not be completely fucked and a sweat sock.
Like, I realise it's not great, but stop and think; can you?
Cameron Rodriguez
What if you ran around without a shirt on Then people can see your muscles AND you get cardiovascular benefits
Gabriel Hill
Must be nice to lift those baby weights. It's funnier because you're too stupid to know he's right.
Jeremiah Lopez
I do uphill sprints once a week for calves
don't do martial arts because of severe social anxiety
Asher Harris
Thanks for reminding me to pick up some protein water
Gavin Brown
>TFW been lifting for 10 years and can sprint 2 km in
Tyler Wilson
that's not impressive at all. that's pretty fucking slow
>not striving for endurance+strength >not training for the world's best sport pic related
Levi Mitchell
Ahh, crewfag here to verify. Meaty quads and god like deads and squats come easy when you row
Robert Martin
not really meaty, just well proportioned imo.
Jaxon Morris
>don't do martial arts because of severe social anxiety
that's like not going to the gym because you're not fit. EVERYONE at martial arts has SEVERE autism, myself included. Like, normal people don't need to do weeaboo tricks and flips to have fun or feel secure. Normal people have friends and siblings and grow up normal, never ever once thinking of dressing up in big white pajamas and flipping about and shit.
Honest to god, you have nothing to be anxious about
t: world's biggest anx.
Jason Rogers
5'10" lightweight manlet, so my quads are pretty huge in proportion to everything else. Gotta go fast though
Joseph Peterson
Rowing machine is pretty great
James Smith
fellow boatfag here great sport but lacks chest work, my bench is always lagging
sick back+legs though which came in handy when i tried rock climbing
Evan Diaz

This genuinely made me feel better. thank you user
