What do you think are the best forms of cardio for someone who trains?

Im taking my dog out first thing in the morning before breakfast around a massive field and normally cover the same distance.. 3 or 4 laps around.

Sometimes i do a very light jog around it for a couple of laps or other times i just walk it at a speedy pace. Is there an advantage in either/or?

What about sprints, rows etc ? for someone who lifts weights and obviously wants to hold onto muscle.

By the way a post on pluk got me thinking about this:

yes you can burn more calories by going faster but they wont be coming from fat they will be muscle burning !

Low intensity cardio has its place in fat burning but not much else. HIT is best, for strength athletes, no question about it.

I do hill sprints, flat sprints, occasionally sled pulls and tyre pulls. The concept II rower is another good tool.

I'd go with rowing as no impact.

Wrestling sounds like fun. I could think a great alter ego and costume, plus plots and stunts to be involved in, eg gay wedding, crucify the feds owners daughter, jump of scaffolding, chair shots, the list of fun wrestling cardio goes on

My personal favourites

Sandbag work
Kettlebells
Sled/Tyre dragging
Mountain biking
Power clean/squat circuits
Rowing

I used to do Judo a lot as well, damn did that keep me anaerobically conditioned. But I sadly had to give that up. Simple answer would be, anything that raises your heart rate about resting level for any period of time and doesnt bore the pants off you.
