^^^I watch 5 minutes of Rachel Maddow and my heart rate goes through the roof for an hour, all the cardio I need.
What is c-a-r-d-i-o? (Sentence should be pronounced slowly as if I'm Mike Tyson trying to learn a new word and enunciate it properly.)

Holly Shit man I feel the same way!!!!! My wife knows when I have been watching that or CNN! I get all red and pissed at the world!
For all of you doing LISS cardio remember to keep this in an AEROBIC state and not an ANAEROBIC aka muscle burning
Think about counting your breaths while doing cardio
Each time weight is forced through the foot you should breath
Deep in and force fully out. GASP IN GASP IN. Blow out blow out. This will not only fix cramping and maybe even boredom but
I know a few of you guys will get a laugh out of the verbiage used in this post lulz
In all seriousness manny is correct.
I ride the stationary bike only. 90-100
RPM's at a tension where you are breathing
Hard and sweating but where your legs
Are not burning. You want to keep this
In an aerobic state. Not a muscle burning
State. I do this 35-45 min Max preferably
On an empty stomach.
My first gym when I started lifting had
A lot of guys who competed. I'd see these
Monsters on a little stationary bike
Doing cardio never anything else or
The stair master. I asked why not the stair
Master, wouldn't you burn more calories?
The answer was, no. All you want to do
For cardio is to get your heart rate up
For a prolonged period of time to kick
Up your metabolism. If you do stairs or the
Bike and your legs are burning then you
Are working out that muscle and that is
Not your purpose. Train your legs on your
Leg day.
The purpose of doing cardio on an empty
Stomach is, if you have just slept for 8
Hours you then have no food in your stomach
To use for fuel"energy " so your body
Will be forced to use stored fat as energy
Therefore you will burn your fat much
Quicker. I will do cardio and abs first thing
In the morning and then work out later in
The day.
