Cardio alternatives ?

[JONJONES]

What is a good cardio alternatives for a bodybuilder carrying a very good level of mass. I just need to drop a few percentage of fat. Without affecting the muscles.

I've reduced carbs significantly.

unless your doing 4 hrs cardio/day and in a deficit while not lifting or getting adequate protein you won't be losing muscle doing cardio.
45 mins errday dooit.

Can't go wrong with walking more.

#1 cut calories
#2 more cardio

If you're carrying enough lean mass a walk on the treadmill on an incline is enough

the amount of cardio u have to do to lose muscle is to much for most people...Every bodybuilder does a shit ton of cardio

Do sprint intervals, excellent cardio 15-20 min will kick your ass. You can do it on a treadmill, a stationary bike a rower, take your pick!

All I do is 8-10 max effort 40 yard dashes once or twice a week along a lot of walking at work. I never liked treadmills or stationary machines.

sprints are ok but to high risk of injury..1-2 hour medium pace everyday is better overall

incline treadmill

It don't get much easier than a brisk walk of 3mph on a 3% incline for 30-45 min. Ive done this 7 days a week for months at certain points without any visible muscle loss. I didn't like it but I did it lol

I'll tell ya man, just 30 mins cardio first thing in the morning sets my mind right and makes my day seem to go a lot better.
not as good for fat loss as an hour but it keeps everything tighter.

i am a fan of the incline treadmill when cardio is in the program (yes you fukkers, i do actually do cardio occasionally).
however for me it's max incline (ideally 15%) and whatever pace i can handle for 15-20 min. Longer on days that i have it in me.
However, for me it's about GPP, not fat loss.

 

[JONJONES]

What about strength conditioning type of circuits or training?
