Will doing fast paced, high intensity work a couple times a week or maybe one exercise per day to build stamina affect my muscle gains?

99% chance it won't.

Cardio doesn't "kill gains" unless really done excessively and in you're in a pretty large deficit.


But also need more detail. At first it sounded like you were referring to HIIT, then you mentioned one exercise per day, so not sure exactly what you mean.

Mostly like some kettle bell stuff for shoulders and sprints or something for legs thrown in at the end of a workout.
