Hey Odin,
I thought I'd just chime in quickly on this cardio
thing .
I believe that cardio actually improves your weight training.
I'm not talking about an hour a day or even 40 mins for that matter.
There's a time and place for that, especially when shedding the last bit of stubborn body fat.
As MTF has proven, cardio, done smartly, does not inhibit muscle growth. That is a fallacy.
I'm talking 20 minutes of aggressive cardio 3 times a week, maybe 4.
Here's what I've found.
I do mostly Rest Pause training. It's a shit load of volume done in a very short window. One - two sets with 3-4 failure points.
It is very taxing on your CV system, which is a good thing!
One might make an argument that you don't need cardio with this
style of training. But I do it regardless,more out of concern for my heart health.
Being cardio fit allows for 10-30 second rests between sets.
More than that should not be needed as BBers or MPDers.
Powerlifters - Yes.
This offseason MTF will be incorporating some of this in his training and you will see for yourself the results it can yield.
Train Hard!!!!!
