I also agree with the comments about refueling within 45 minutes after a workout, espacially an intense workout. A 4-1 carb to protein mix is good, along with glutamine.
And to the original question, I like my cardio after lifting. |
The article posted just tells me to keep my heart rate at or below a certain number. I didn't say that sprinting is good/bad. I know that if you want to lose weight, you have to do aerobic exercise. My point was, that you won't be able to do said aerobic exercise if you don't have the energy to get to that point of fat burning (which is usually 15 min+). And in most cases you won't have energy if you have no food in your stomach.
