Hello to one and all,
I've got a question about cardio and frequency. Is it a bad thing to do a cardio workout seven days a week. By "Workout" I mean the standard cardio circuit at the gym of bike, treadmill and ski machine thing.
The reason I ask is that after a long time of abusing my body with vast quantities of alcohol I have been hitting the gym hard for the past month or so in order to be fighting fit once again. Tommorow would be my seventh day straight. Now, obviously I have read the importance of rest on muscles and I perform the standard cycle of one day chest / arms / legs /etc / etc for weights but what about cardio?.
Being a muscle does the heart need a rest period as well to improve it's performance?.
On a side issue I have just brought a jump rope for home use. Does anyone know off any cool routines.
Thanks in advance,
Simon.
