This episode is all about cardio and muscle loss. After getting a ton of questions after posting Episode #57: Cardio Will Save Your Life,  I sat down with CeCe English & Jeff Chenault to discuss the ridiculousness of the countless claims that doing cardio results in an increase in muscle loss.  We define cardio, talk about what ACTUALLY happens when your body breaks down muscle and provide our recommendation to how to best implement cardio alongside strength training to get great results. Whether your goal is weight loss or you've been struggling to build muscle, this episode brings our opinions and combined experience to the debate of whether or not cardio is killing your gains.  Timestamps:00:00 Does Cardio Make You Lose Muscle?02:54 Endurance vs. Power Athletes04:04 The Definition of Cardio06:33 What Causes Muscle Breakdown?10:36 Heart Health & Importance of Cardio13:45 Adding Cardio Into Your Routine15:24 Common Methods People Use Cardio18:52 Cardio Before Resistance Training20:30 If Your Goal Is Weight Loss…25:33 The Benefits of Cardio After Resistance Training30:00 The Importance of Programming31:39 Factors to Consider38:32 Key TakeawaysSponsors by Red Dot Fitness Online Training Programs:Red Dot Fitness Training Programs: https://www.rdftrainonline.comOnline membership (Full Access To All Programs & Virtual Coaching):https://www.reddotfitness.net/online-membershipVirtual Coaching:https://www.reddotfitness.net/virtual-coachingSelf-Guided Programs:https://www.reddotfitness.net/Self-Guided-Programs1Connect With Us:Website - https://ironsightspodcast.com/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/ironsightspodcast/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/ironsMore Iron Sights Interviews:Triple Feed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VMTc7AE0KaQ&t=384sKayley Gunner: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nfGqHxCv7Vc&t=522sMike Salemi: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jq-Nj6M0EBI&t=335sAdam Schafer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BiyrdWdO1y8&t=8sSal Di Stefano: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JBdKdSjQ0BM&t=4425sJason Khalipa: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YTiq-sID-EMByron Rodgers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XrtEyuVNNpwDonnie Oliver: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cKY1_TLKHlIChris Cheng: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wr0zSGSTzKM&t=2sTraver Boehm: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r_NLdIg3zBc&t=1394s
