i read in this article that short, low intensity cardio sessions after workout is great, but dont know if its the best for the hst philosophy. Heres a quote:
what do u guys think about this during hst? it seems to make sense, but maybe not a lot of it.[b said:Quote[/b] ]
Moderate duration, low intensity cardiovascular exercise leads to increases in both insulin dependent and insulin-independent glucose and amino acid uptake in muscle and liver cells for several hours after the exercise bout. So as a result, cardio can be somewhat anabolic for muscle tissue (from a nutrient partitioning viewpoint). Also, cardiovascular exercise burns a good amount of calories (and therefore fat) and leads to increased muscular uptake of nutrients for hours after exercise (there’s that nutrient partitioning again).
