Forms of Cardio

What do you do for cardio when cutting? This mini winter cut, I'll be hitting the pool for 30 minutes of low to moderate-intensity swims. I'm thinking I might achieve some nice core development along the way.

Light, fast bag work and swimming all day long bro!
prettyboy123I do the bike every single work out. It gets metabolism going and is easy on the knees after a heavy lift
I’ve always been an ab sculpt guy during the winter months…yah I know it’s primarily a “ bulking “ season time but for me I prefer to be more disciplined during this time so when spring/ summer is here I’m looking tip top,… or as much as a 56yr old can lol…where I’m at, spring summer means bbq get togethers, lake weekends, etc…so I can indulge a bit more in the cornucopia of food and beverages during this time and still maintain an acceptable bf %…big believer in daily stretching , couple miles walk jog daily, and ab work…incline crunches, Roman chair leg lifts, ab crunch chair…then more stretches….also a fan of biking if that’s an option….
Outdoor bike rides for 15-25 miles, enjoyable and easy on the joints.
During winter might not be possible/comfortable depending on location.
this; shake-weight
I only shake weight with one in each hand.
Two at once? Whose weights are you "shaking"?
no homo
Makes me think of Tyler St James, dude was fucked by the system.
Boxing, battle ropes, lot of HIIT
I love hitting the heavy and speed bag helps the hand eye coordination also love my recumbent bike life saver for when joints ache. Another which is one of my favs is basketball at the gym or rec center but as I get older harder to keep up with the young bucks lol also enjoy hiking and biking and if u live close to a beach running in the sand will get u in shape faster than anything.
I’ve always noticed swimmers were muscular, leanish but not ripped. Haven’t researched in a while but I remember reading some theories years ago that being constantly exposed to the cold water may encourage your body to insulate itself. No idea if it’s true but certainly fits what I’ve observed.
One of the best cardio workouts. And yea I haven't saw an obese competitive swimmer yet. Like you said most are muscular
I just saw this...boxing. One of the best cardio exercises ever! Those boxing gloves feel like you're holding cement blocks after awhile. I drop weight fast boxing but other forms of cardio like swimming are good also.
Anaerobic cardio burns fat.
during my competitive years my coach just put me to do recumbent bike 30-40 minutes tops
If I was behind on my prep, he put me to do high cardio on the spinning bike.
until this day i do 20 minutes on the recumbent bike just to keep a decent human shape
My cardio takes two forms:
1) Long dog walks
2) Pestering the wife for more sex.
prettyboy123which of those 2 do you prefer more frequently
Damn another name I haven’t seen in ages. If you’ve been back a while cat I apologize as I’ve been missing from here for a long while too. Nice to see you back In the forums
Good to see you mate!
The Catalyst got stirred about 10 months ago mate
Press!…..how u doin brutha!….hope the holidays have treated u and yours well!!….
Disregard the comments I made up top, that was ment for a different press 1 on the site….lol
So I’ve been cruising around the site as I’ve been gone awhile….not much in nutrition threads, and groups I’m in…where’s the happening chatter for an old gear head these days…
Bro its a good job you checked in here - whilst you've been gone there have been some nasty rumours circuating about you getting into the Gay porn Industry, and I don't mean the normal run of the mill leather chaps stuff either!! I mean some hardcore dungeon type shit involving horses and cats. Problem with the world nowadays Drocky is everyone is constantly trying to push the boundaries and you don't know what to believe. BTW I've managed a 10" stretch with no scrotum weights now.
I feel I should clear the air regarding the rumors….it may or may not true ol drock was involved in the making of some homo porn…however,….its NOT homo if its your job….i checked the handbook and clearly states on page 7 paragraph 2 article 7.2….
“ any individual involved in homo activities for the purpose of financial gain shall not be deemed a homo”…
And for the record , no horses or felines were harmed in the making of any of the videos….
It’s a cleaver mix of camera trickery and stuffed animals……perfectly acceptable by PETA and the Mormon church…
Its only homo if theres direct, loving eye contact.
I appreciate the comment…however,, if it’s for money, I will abide by the the no-homo bylaws so I don’t get flamed …..
Aaahh Stuffed Animals!!! I've been wondering how you managed some of those scenes - I was wondering how the hell you got the cat the stay still whilst you were doing all that to it, clever stuff. However there's a Hole in your story though (No Homo - or maybe) Drock is a wealthy man nowadays, so there is simply no need for him to be taking one down the hatch to be able to put food on the table? There must be more to this facade than meets the eye ...
Aaahhh….nice detective work brutha P…..however , there are some details / clues you havnt been exposed to regarding this “rumored “ homo porn I’m involved in…
Yes it’s true I DO have twin brother Erock_357…..whom has made some very poor life choices so….he was in deep ( no homo ) with an underground Taiwanese she male adult film company …so as a loving brother would do, I took on his identity and his debt to get him released and back here in the US…..yes I did do what I had to do to rescue my twin bro…..I assume that’s where the the rumors came ( no homo ) from….there is , however, one physical difference tween him and me…..I have a birthmark on my taint in the shape of the state of Texas…crazy I know…erock doesn’t…with that said , any footage of the Texas taint is me….if not it’s my twin erock…
Well I've known a few Texans in my time on here, and one thing for sure is they sure are a crazy breed - so anything is possible Drock. Plus I don't put it past you guys not to jump on a plane and come over here and shoot me if I disagree Lmao!! Now we have cleared up that other questionable income source - how are the female wrestling face smothering videos with the wife doing these days?
Thanx for understanding my choices P!…
Those had to take a backseat during my exposition to Taiwan…..
I will tell u this tho, had I known all this crazy ass Taiwanese porn involvement was on the docket…I mite not have retired…
Joking aside mate - are you missing working life on the farm at all or are you finding plenty to do with your days?
I’m great P!….with the holidays and all we have been able to see both sides of the family…..lot of traveling but totally worth it…..
The wife is keeping me busy with ALOT of projects to spearhead so she can be fully remote and then it’s off to wherever we / she decides…
We r talking just traveling vs a homebase but negotiations r ongoing ….
Hope u r doing well my brutha!?…
Why didn't you come and see me over the Xmas holidays bud?? I was lonely just sat here with my pidgeons! Man that would be a hoot
You are the kinda guy who needs a strong woman kickin your ass and keepin you busy Drocky - I could see your mind wondering elsewhere without some discipline in your life LOL
You r not wrong brutha!…the wife is the glue of our family for sure….i was always in the mindset that he who makes the $ is the family head….lol..not even close!…she’s amazing and keeps everything in order from all the grandkids bdays to how much my allowance is each month….she is definitely the head of this tribe!…
You just keep behaving yourself and soon you will be allowed $500 a month mate, its gonna feel like the worlds your oyster bro!
lol..yah if I get that 500 month she’s in trouble..I’m hitting the casinos!
I still want to visit a proper American whore house - you gonna take me bro?
Are you inviting yourself to dinner?
My condolences that #2 isn't just having more sex with your wife.
Heavy bag
@Pumped have you boxed before?
Ive used striking in the octagon with 4oz but not in a professional boxing ring with 12oz gloves. Ill use them on the bag only
I feel ya. Yea big difference in wearing 4oz vs 12oz gloves.
One the best workouts you can get. These guys don't know about that.
Are you implying your scrotum is like wearing ankle weights?
Haha maybe used to be before AAS. But a 20-30 minute punching bag workout is a lot funner than running like a gerbil on a treadmill lol. 3 min rounds with 1min rest. Around 5 rounds
Its hard bloody work thats for sure, continually punching something is seriously tiring lol
I get guys think they are tough and tell them just hit the bag nonstop 1minute and they get drained. Imagine 3 minute rounds. You definitely have to work your stamina up like pull ups.
Do you go to Boxing classes bud?
When i got serious in my jiu jitsu i did kickboxing to enhance my striking. My uncles and dad boxed so always had a heavy bag and gloves in the house or grandparents since toddler. Only made to purple belt then kids, work and drugs
Cool - So you are a bit of a hard M'fucker then??! Do you still do it alongside weights or did you give it up? It seems so many guys over in America grew up doing BJJ or some form of martial arts, I think we got it from you guys same as training - as both are big things here now. Not so much 10 to 15 years ago though ....
