    Sounds good thanks. I do 30 minutes 5 days a week. I just wanted to make sure. I herd once that cardio zone could be a negative if you trying to put on muscle.

    People will come up with all sorts of reasons to avoid it. As long as your diet is somewhat dialed in and your cardio isnt excessive you shouldnt have to worry about it eating away muscle.

    Yeah there was a time back in my early 20s back when I was racing road bikes when I could burn muscle doing cardio but I had a resting heart rate of 36 back then. Of course if I tried to push 400 watts for 35 minutes now they would be pulling a corpse off the machine at about 3.5 minutes LOL. I really think people really underestimate the amount of energy expenditure needed to push into any significant muscle burning.
