Tried running 6 days out of 7 last week got blisters on my damn feet.. that's just me though.
Nothing wrong with it they say you should do cardio 5 times a week for the "well being" effect.

There is a guy in my gym who does cardio for 40 minutes 7 days at 250 watts and he is in incredible shape -- very muscular and lean. He is also all natural. It probably has much to do with genetics, but I think the idea that daily cardio will make you lose all of your muscle mass is a myth.
4-5 days is more than enough for most.. I tried doing the 6-7 dayer, and I found it burnt me out..

Dont listen to this advice by any means.. Why is it unnecessary? That would depend a lot on your goals, if you are trying to cut up, you dont think that 30 min. a day is a good thing?
Please explain yourself... I would like to know why it is unnecessary.

Just what i was taught and read articles on in an excersice science class to sum up...cardio for 7 days is not detrimental but did not show any increase of effectiveness compared to cardio for 5 days. I dont believe everything i read or that im tought so Ive tried both ways and found that 5 is just as effective as 7 if not more because you have some time to rest. Everyone is different try seven days a week I don't care, but seven days a week for ME was unnecessary

I'm with you Cutt. I think 5 days does the trick.
anabolic12, I'm not so sure why you are so defensive about this. I mean it's just an opinion. It would be like getting pissed because someone says they like the Star 5x5 workout and you're a proponent of 1 body part/day. It's all just what works for YOU. To each his own bro. Cutt was just offering his opinion.
i play college sports, this is the offseason so im trying to condition. i also find myself with a lot of extra time now, and running is just something i took up. im not talking about high intesity every day, on days i have practice ill juts do the eliptical for 20 min or so, and others ill run for 30 on the treadmill and run another 30 outside.

Bro you misread the posts or something. I wasn't being bitchy I was telling the other guy to eas up on Cutt. You just repeated what i posted.
BTW - Im fairly certain everyone knows that cardio is good for your heart since cardio is short for cardiovascular and literally means the heart and blood vessel system.

Everyone is different, I hate cardio, and it is simply a function of body fat,
When I need to lower my body fat, I do cardio, when I am okay with where I am, I drop the cardio

My grandparents walk everyday for cardio and their heart, so I dont see a problem with it.. I think 4-5 days is more than enough but it depends on individual and goals..
