Cardio 3 hours after workout?

[Slyder190]

What do you guys think of doin cardio 3 hours after my workout? I prefer not to do it earlier in the day before hittin the weights on the same day cuz my workouts kinda suck then.

I would wait longer, that way your body will recover more.

I've read in a few places you should wait 8-12 hours after lifting before doing any strenuous cardio. Sounds like a good rule of thumb to me. Lift in the morning, run in the evening.

Most I could wait is 4 hours cuz I work nights. Days off from work though, definately.
