    quick question

    Do you all recommend doing or skipping cardio on a leg day. I usually do 20-25mins of hard cardio.

    I don’t do cardio on or around leg day for one after legs I usually have trouble walking let alone running…

    And you could be demanding a lot from your recovery abilities,

    if i do cardio the day Before, I feel a lot weaker on legs.

    I did legs yesterday a.m., then 40 mins of LISS cardio at 6 p.m.

    Helps me w/recovery and soreness actually.

    "HARD" cardio, no, never.

    You mean for oxygenating capillaries, muscle fibber, and draining lactic acid or blood pooling, yes i agree...it can be effective for this I just don’t like to do it lol

    My legs were at their biggest when I was cycling over 20miles to and from work per day. Even on leg days I'd cycle 10 miles from work to the gym and my legs continued to blow out.
