Weights or Cardio?


Why chose? Again I'm going back to terms of intensity. Use weights with cardio in mind. Pump up your exercise routine. Maintain your intensity throughout the work. Now in order to do the effectively you need to do a few this to optimises your workout for cardio implementation.

*Have a plan: Know what set is next and where you are going.

*Set up first: Set your weights and have all your stations ready to go from one to the next.

*Plan an exercise routine that alternates from one body part to another.

An effective cardio weight plan needs to limits the time from one exercise to another. A time example is 1 min of constant lifting followed by 10-20 seconds of transition times. A plan with 5 separate exercises and 2 cycles would take about 15 minuets and would effectively combine cardio with weights.
