I would, but keep it to a minimum. Twice a week, 20 mins each. I believe if you are on a cycle, it's just a good habit to give your ticker some exercise also. It's gonna be working overtime pumping all that increased blood volume. Your blood pressure is gonna be higher and cardio will help some. That's just my personal opinion. ------------------ [This message has been edited by CONTRACTION (edited March 07, 2001).] | ||

I do about 15min 3x per week just to keep the fat down and to keep my cardio up soo I can walk without losing my breath. | ||

I always do cardio while on my bulking cycle, - helps me to get rid of those extra calories. Besides it burns fat, so why not do it? | ||

I was thinking the same thing(at least 3 times a week).Another question i had is how long do you suggest bulking up.In other words how high could i let my body fat get before i say its time to stop.Ive never bulked up before and im not a really a diet guru but id appreciate any advice on my bulking cycle.I heard short bulking cycles are better but it may be a matter of opinion. | ||

i do 20 mins of hard cardio 3 times a week, plus i go out dancing alot on weekends, so thats enough burning for me. Sometimes I will do the kickboxing class. When bulking, its helps to get rid of water alot of the times. ------------------ MustangRacer27 | ||

I HEARD WHEN YOUR BULKING UP YOU DON'T WANT TO RUN. YOU WANT TO BE ABEL TO KEEP SOME OF THE MUSCLE SO WHAT A GUY SUGGESTED WAS TO WALK AT AN INCLINE OF 10.5 AND AT A SPEED OF 3.5 ON THE TREADMILL. WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK |
