 When I have enough cash, I get a deep tissue. Member 465, 11029 posts SQ 240, BP 175, DL 302.5717.5 kgs @ 104kgs UnEq | I do heavier weights and then do lighter weights faster or supersets. Done | ||

 ‘downsizing’ Member 5704, 3221 posts SQ 280, BP 210, DL 320810.0 kgs @ 96.3kgs UnEq | daveburton said:I'm sure this has been discussed before, but whats the general consensus of opinion on this : if you are going to do cardio and weights in one session, should you do cardio first or weights ? Thanks folks. I would split sessions by at least a few hours.. but if you have to do them all in one block do weights first - if you’re fatigued from cardio beforehand not only is strength going to be affected but technique off. | ||

My asshole is not watertight.

There's sod all chance I'd have been doing any weights afterwards without using piss poor weights or without risk of injuring myself. Obviously, it depends on how intense the cardio is but I reckon in 99% of instances it'd be best to do the weights first | ||

 Still got a little bit of strength Member 400, 22044 posts | A bit of gentle cardio could be a good warm-up, but for anything more substantial I'd say to do the lifting first. | ||

Ive done sub 7 2ks whilst increasing strength. If the conditioning work isn't too high volume then it won't affect your strength gains really | ||
