Has anyone else here fallen for the "cardio is bad" meme?

I can unironically say that cardio has more of a health benefit than lifting ever has. It's actually pretty fun and feels nice too, I thoroughly enjoy it

>getting fit is about being healthy

This is gonna need to stop

Hopefully in a month or so switch to lifting and

bulking.
>>
>>37383767
holy fuck my nigga right here.

Explain how EXACTLY did it make you healthier OP? Oh wait, you cant.
Did you realize why yet? Of course not, youre a health retard so let me explain to you.
Healthy doesnt mean anything. As in the word. Define it. You fucking cant.

As in, it lowered my resting heart rate(significant reduction in heart disease), helped me build endurance(goes without saying), helped me with erectile dysfunction I had at times(improved bloodflow), vascularity improved.


Are you SERIOUSLY suggesting that cardio isn't important to health? It has tons of benefits you're a retard
>>
>>37384049
Must be fun taxing your CNS, anon

>>37384060

i'll stop when whatever that thing is hurts
>>
>>37383871

It feels so good to be able to think "I want to run to the gym" then be able to without being a wheezing breathless sack after 5 minutes.

I've enjoyed the practical benefits of jogging every 2 days far more than muscle gains in my 6 months of lifting.

Just do the /fit/ couch to 5k programme for easy stamina gains.
>>
>>37384114
Tbh lifting and cardio are intertwined, if you're neglecting either then you're kind of retarded. Being strong and lean is great but you need cardiovascular health too.

Heart disease is the number one cause of death for men, they say.

>Your heart worked before, your heart works now
>doing cardio helps you get better at cardio
>erecti- what the fuck dude. youre delusional if you think it had anything to do with fucking running
>vascu- how in the fuck is this health? what does it have to do with cardio? youre just cutting nerd
wrong wrong wrong wrong
this is why everyone who even mentions health is automatically outed as a retard
>>
>>37383852
You're starting to use the logic of HAES landwhales.

>"Tell me why I need to be below 300 pounds to be healthy"
>"Tell me why I need to be able to run 2 miles without stopping to be considered /fit/"
>>
>>37383841
Are you not lifting while cutting?
>>
>>37384258
Doing strength training 2x a week as well, so yes
>>
>>37384237
>>Your heart worked before, your heart works now

Lower resting heart rate means your heart is more efficient at pumping blood, it is pretty much universally accepted that is a huge help against heart disease and such.
>>doing cardio helps you get better at cardio

Yes. Walking and running is important in a human's life
>>erecti- what the fuck dude. youre delusional if you think it had anything to do with fucking running

Imptoved bloodflow helps erections
>>vascu- how in the fuck is this health? what does it have to do with cardio? youre just cutting nerd

Are you retarded?
>wrong wrong wrong wrong

Is that why every doctor recommends cardio?
>>
>>37384237

This is a prime example of a trump voter.

what's the best form of cardio? In my opinion:

Swimming
Cycling
Running (unless it's HIIT then maybe I would put this over cycling but with the exploding knees)

Can you focus on one form of cardio or should you do all of these?
>>
>>37384591
what about rowing? :c also agree with swimming, I'd put more forms of running over cycling though.
>>
>>37384612
Runners knee. Good luck
>>
>>37383760
I have.

If you want to do cardio with weights, then choose a volume that will allow you to go over 15 reps each set.
>>
>>37384114
jogging isn't all that great bud. As someone who used to do fight sports and other altheltic shit, jogging is like the weakest form of cardio you can imagine. HIIT workouts do more for your heart and lungs.
>>
>>37384639
absolutely photoshoped tho, shame

get the fuck out of year you faggot liberal bitch. That dude is retarded, as are you
