mike-
honestly, i dont know alot about skip lacour. i know he claims to be drug free (and is an au natural advocate), but thats about it. interesting that youd mention jeff willet though, a guy who swears by doing cardio every day.
naeb-
I'm sure you could find 10 "experts" that will tell you anything you want to believe
thats been my whole point.....you can read anything from anyone off of any website.....doesnt really mean a hill of beans until it works for you.
But if your goal is gaining muscle mass, excessive cardio, such as running for 30 minutes every morning, is a detriment.
i agree 100%, and i think weve probably misunderstood each other along the lines here. first off, the original thread question, in my mind, wasnt "how can i get huge", but rather, "how can i get back into shape", so i figured he was asking about primarily losing fat (that seemed to be the tone). so, along those lines, ive thrown in my two cents about cardio. second, i wouldnt ever advocate running every morning, as i believe this would certainly be a detriment. im not sure where i ever implied that i run every morning, or ever have, but my opinion on that is 30 mins. of cardio, three times a week would be ideal for most people concerned with fat loss. i believe anyone can do this without impeding any muscle gains, if its coupled with the right nutrition and weight training.
