I have searched for this topic and it seems most recommended to do cardio on the "OFF Days" But since I will only be able to make it to the gym 3 days/week I was hoping to incorporate some cardio on the same day.
I have not started HST yet but have been doing a 5 min warm-up on the eliptical and after my heavy workout, another 20-30 min on the stationary bike. When I start HST, will I be able to continue this cardio session after the weights, or should I skip cardio altogether? Do you guys think that a short period of intense or moderate cardio on HST days will impact hypertrophy that much?
Also, since the other day I have some pain in my left knee (I think it's the stationary bike) so I have been using the eliptical instead. Have any of you found the bike to be hard on the knees, as I do?
Thanks in advance folks,
Steiner
