    So instead of the 45 mins of low intensity after your workout you should do 20 mins of high intensity, some people say on a high carb day you can do 3 mins high 1 minutes low and on low carbs day i personally do 1 minute high 2 minutes low, but I want to shoot myself after the high intensity minute, lol.........

    Also any ideas where your heart rate is on the low intensity morning cardio?? This is def important to know to optimize your fat burning cardio.
    ok cool, so on my lifting days il do 20 min of high intensity (3 min high, 1 min low).....on my off days il do (2 min high, 1 min low).

    -as for the morning cardio should it always be low intensity no matter if its an on day or off day?

    I personally do ALL of my morning cardio at low intensity since you have no food/fuel in your system to burn and too high of an intensity in my eyes would def start to burn muscle, so overall the guys I know do all their morning cardio at a Low intensity (including the body builders i know).

    I would def think of changing the intensity of your lifting though, that will definitely bring changes to your body sooner also, dont always get used to the same old lifting routine because the body is VERY complex and VERY smart so eventually it gets used to it. In the most recent Muscular Development magazine there is a article on a study done about the increase in mass and strength when lifting is done at a higher intensity compared to the very popular lower intensity lifting.........

    so maybe change time in between sets? or completely change my split? maybe add some drop sets and super sets? also remember im going to be on tren so you think i would still be able to do high intensity 3 min and 1 min of low intensity?

    if your hopping on gear i would NEVER do high intensity cardio. at 240g carbs thats about what im intaking right now and i currently run no high intensity. if im around the 300g carbs than i will implement some sort of alternating high and low intensities post workout for 20 minutes.
