does cardio after a workout = muscle loss?

[wrestlerguy]

I love to swim so I can only swim at my gym, making me only able to do swimming after my work out.....Will it lead to muscle loss?

[paki123]

no, as long as you eat enough calories ur fine. u might be fatigued. just eat enough. its a great way to burn cals

Well im cutting, and i'm eating less than maintenence, so does that mean i'm not getting enough cals or do you mean like really low cals

[paki123]

well make sure ur getting enough protein. use whey and casien powder. Great supps. Drink it with water when cutting. Just make sure u follow a 50 30 20 macro diet. But u will lose muscle when cutting.

I just took 2 days out from the gym and played alot of football, so much that my legs are hurting.. And from only this it feels like I've lost muscle...

false. depends on how fatigued you are. if your body's stores are empty and you start running you are going to start eating away muscle cause that is the body's fastest source of carbs

[wrestlerguy]

BTW, if I do weight training and cardio back to back, should I still have fast carbs after or should I eat complex carbs

or you could purchase purple wrath and start drinking it mid way through your workout into your swim. It all depends on the intensity at which you swim at after and for how long.

so simple or complex carbs after weight training + cardio?

[kmart07]

cardio after weights is 1 of the best ways to burn fat just keep it at low intensity(65-70% of max heart rate)

[Dominick C]

I agree, I sweat much more after that..Im running a cutting diet so it works great man..Dont worry bout muscle loss, just eat enough natural protein in yoru diet and keep lifting. You wont lose much muscle at all...

Could I ask why high intensity like HIIT wouldn't be good?

"To create an insulin spike after training, a simple carbohydrate (sugars) should be consumed. Some examples of good sugary carbs to consume after a workout are, honey and fruit juices. The spike created will increase protein synthesis."

He's talking about weight training + cardio also, not just weight training

a weight training + cardio is not going to come close to depleting glycogen stores.
