actually it does

Perhaps for a cutting regiment

Long distance running does nothing for strength

In my view

not allowing your muscle groups to fully heal impedes the muscle building process which means less gains

the body works on a tear down build up process

wait a second, 30 secs for rest?

you tear it down it builds up

isnt it normaly 1 min

between workouts

cut it down to 30 secs

your goal is to hit your anaerobic threshold

hmmm

Sprints are good for recovery not necessarily long distance running

you will feel like you have to throw up the first few times but you will get used to it

Also I'm not overweight

So focusing on the lifts I'm doing is fine for getting my heart rate up

Instead of running in addition to that

If I wanted to lose weight I would probably bring in some cardio

yeah again any workout schedule that does not allow the muscle groups to fully heal impedes the muscle building process which means less gains.

you should do cardio about 2 to 3 times a week

you need both

Cardio can actually impede gains

If you work cardio too hard

aerobic workouts has been shown to enlarge the heart. anaerobic workouts has been shown to thicken the heart walls

sure

but you need to put most of your eggs in one basket

cardio doesn't impede gains

not allowing your muscle groups to fully heal impedes gains.

sprints

in between leg days will impede gains

if you try and heavy squat and Deadlift and run 3 miles 2 times a week you'll probably fall flat in both

maybe an advanced lifter could

But not people getting into general strength

your anaerobic threshold takes place when your heartrate is within 90% of its maximum.

you get this with a proper weight lifting program

give me an example of a proper weight lifting program

ss gomad <:niggerjoy:404280890714226689>

to complement your weight lifting program you need to do a aerobic workout 2 - 3 times a week with your heartrate at 60 - 75% of your maximum.

running, swimming, martial arts, hitting the bag, jump rope, etc. are all methods to use.

I would not recommend that to a beginner

i would
