The Role of Cardio for Bodybuilders
For bodybuilders, cardio primarily serves as a means of energy expenditure during contest prep or calorie deficits. It is not necessary for muscle growth or strength development. Separating cardio sessions from strength training, preferably by 24 hours, helps minimize interference effects. Bodybuilders can focus on lower intensity cardio, such as walking, to avoid excessive fatigue and interference with muscle growth. The goal is to achieve high energy expenditure rather than endurance training adaptations.
