When Cardio is KILLING Your Gains (VIDEO PROOF!)

  • Does cardio training kill your gains? In this video, I’m going to show you how to approach your cardiovascular workouts so that you can get this all important work done without compromising your gains you’ve made in the gym. To illustrate this point, it’s important to first distinguish between the types of gains we are talking about. Strength is one of the most sought after assets one can gain from their workouts. That said, combining strength work with conditioning or cardio work is a big mistake and can be seen with just simple test.

    Using the pullup exercise, we can see just how impactful a small amount of conditioning work can be to the output of the back muscles during the exercise. To start, perform a set of pullups fresh and see how many you can do to failure. It doesn’t matter when you do them but you should try to do them when you are most rested to get a true number. Be sure to go all the way down and get up as far as you can to get your chin up over the bar on every rep.
    Note how many pullups you performed and then call it a day. Return to the gym the following day or even the day after and this time, before doing your set of pullups to failure, start with a simple set of 40-50 cone hops as shown in the video. This simple test of anaerobic power endurance is enough to cause some fatigue in the legs and more importantly, demand an increase in blood flow to the working legs during the movement. The blood is increased here in order to help attempt and oxygenate the working muscles as much as they can during this albeit anaerobic exercise, but also to help aid in the removal of the metabolites produce by muscular contraction that make continued work very difficult.
    As soon as you are done with the jumps you want to get back up on the pullup bar and aim to complete another fresh set of pullups to failure. I say fresh because while your body may be feeling a bit fatigued from the jumping, your lats should be unaffected since they were no used at all in the jumping. From here, you should quickly notice that you just don’t feel as strong as you did the last time you did this. Why is this? Because your body will never be able to serve all of its masters well. While it may be able to redirect blood flow to the now working lats, it simply can’t do it as efficiently as it could had the muscles of the legs not already been drawing on the demands as well.
    Because of this, the muscles in the lats will fatigue much faster. Attempting to increase your strength in this capacity is not going to be effective. You will never see top end increases in your muscular strength output and any gains in strength that you may have made to that point will be diminished by your existing fatigue. That makes improvements in strength nearly impossible if you choose to train this way.
    If you are seeking strength gains then you should always aim to complete your cardio work on a day separate from your strength work. At the very least, if this is not possible, you can do your cardio work after you have already completed your strength exercises. It is simply not a good idea to try and bounce back and forth between exercises done with the purpose of increasing your strength while blitzing your body with conditioning movements as well.
    If muscle hypertrophy and muscle gains are your goal on the other hand, then training like this may actually help you to make more functional gains. This is because you can still build muscle by simply reaching overload. What may be a lower threshold is still an overload as perceived by the body and therefore capable of igniting a hypertrophic response while demanding your body do this in a fatigued state. This is a more athletic way of taxing your body and ultimately a more realistic way.
    If you are looking for a program that trains you like an athlete so you can look like an athlete, head to athleanx.com and use the program selector to determine which program is best aligned with your current goals. Use what the pros use to get ripped without losing muscle and start looking your best in just the next 90 days.

    Before you suggest I wasn't recovered from the exercise I did the previous day remember this...I did one single set of pullups to concentric-only failure (no eccentric failure), rested 24 hours and came back to repeat this single set (except this time immediately preceded by a bout of conditioning work - which is currently a popular programming protocol). In any healthy individual, this single set would not prevent you from being able to repeat another single set a day later. In fact, most anybody with any training experience at all could reproduce another set to failure just MINUTES after completing the last one! That is what would occur in a normal workout. So no, a lack of recovery from the previous day is not in play here. Nor is the fact that I didn't rest between jumps and pullups from a muscle recovery standpoint. The lats did nothing during the jumps of course. What is in play here is the limitation of blood borne resources caused by the activity of the conditioning on the muscles of the legs leaving less of an ability in the lats to perform to their maximum because of their lack of these same resources. Strength gains will suffer if trained this way. Overall athleticism is improved.

      ATHLEAN-X™ sorry jeff but i heard that combining cardio and strenght training is good. But do the strenght training first because when doing cardio you will lose a lot of glycogen and it will not helping you in strenght training. So its better to do a strenght training first. Sorry if I'm wrong. I just give what I heard before.

      if you want to build strength, you need to do about 4-6 reps of 80-85% of your 1 rep maximum. If you're combining your workouts with loads of cardio in-between reps then when you try to lift 80-85% of your 1 rep max, you may not even make it to 2 reps, and you're not gonna grow your muscles. That's Jeff's point.

      @Godabitch 6 лет назад +15

      well he really recommended doing it on another day, which just isn't realistic in my opinion. there are only 7 days in a week, most active lifters do so 4-6x week. that leaves 3-1 days a week to do cardio assuming you never take a single day off to let your CNS rest. realistically, an active weight lifter would only be able to responsibly and appropriately do 1 day of cardio-only if following this protocol. I don't think that is nearly enough, no matter your goals. Even a power lifter should do cardio more than once a week...
      i do my cardio after lifting, which brings up another claim of his, being that 45 minutes is enough time to get a complete workout. that just simply isn't true, especially if you do abs daily, cardio 4-5x a week, stretch/foam roll, and so on. this coincidentally brings up another contradiction in that he believes the push/pull/leg split to be great, and that you should do biceps on the same days that you do back, etc. - if that is the case, unless you are only doing 2 back exercises and 2 bicep exercises without any cardio, you're going to be there for longer than 45 minutes.
      I generally do (on back/bicep days, for instance) deadlifts, 1 lat lift, bent over rows, seated rows, one or two light lifts to target smaller back muscles, and 2-3 bicep lifts. that puts me at about 8 exercises (which is generally considered average) at roughly 5 sets per exercise (a warmup or 2, a couple heavier, a couple lighter) totaling 40 sets. he claims 20 sets takes 40 minutes, which sounds right, because back days usually take about 90 minutes for me to complete. now, add to that any stretching (~5 mins), daily abs (5-10 mins), and any cardio you may or may not do and you're looking at a 2 hour session easily.
      my apologies for having digressed so drastically, but i've found these few things specifically to be fallacious. i love the way he uses science to explain the way the body works, and am a huge fan of his videos, but i simply can't understand how he is to think 45 minutes is enough time to get a full workout in. sure, that amount of time is reasonable to get a solid lift in, but a full days worth of exercise, especially for an ATHLETE simply cannot be condensed to 45 minutes. The Rock is very efficient in keeping his time in the gym low, and even he does 1:30-2 hours of training a day.

    • @Pruflas-Watts

      JCj THIS! On point 100%!
      45 minutes is only sufficient enough for me on shoulder day, and only if I'm completely energized and focused to slay my shoulders and make the most of it. Trying to make time for an actual meaningful workout with only 45 minutes means I'm not gonna be a let to squeeze in abs which tacks on another 6 - 10 minutes, followed by sprinting for cardio, which tacks on an additional 10 - 20 minutes, in order to achieve a more meaningful workout for an easy gainer with a slow metabolism like me. 45 minutes on a super set arm day, a heavy hitting minimal resting period shoulder day? Maybe, but a solid 60 minutes is an absolute must to achieve a truly great, muscle pumping workout and that's assuming you actually make every minute In there count

      Crossfit (or more generally, circuit training) does get into this territory because it technically is preventing you from exerting your full effort on each exercise because so many are done in succession. Crossfit's real problem is that 99% of their gyms/trainers are awful in that no one is informed, and allow or encourage people to perform dangerous exercises with horse shit form. I can't even tell you how many people I know that just LOOOOOOOVVVVEEEEDDDDDDD crossfit until they got disc issues in their backs, pulled muscles, hyper-extended joints, etc. It's just a bad program/bad idea.
      If you want functional/athletic training, Jeff's programs do it better than anything else you would ever find. I've been lifting for 15+ years and I can't believe how much I've learned after just the past ~8 months or so on Jeff's programs as well as how much I've improved/changed my training methods & intensity.

      Depending on what you do, in what order, will directly affect your ability to perform sets and reps. This is a fact. So doing cardio prior to a set will not make you STRONGER but that does not mean it will make your cardio better, or endurance, stamina, or the very many other factors that can come into play with the different types of results/muscle goals that exist.
      Point being, If you're doing CrossFit you should be aware of your many diet varieties, and have a plan in motion for recovery just as much as your plan for nutrition and output *i.e the fitness* just because you run 10 laps and then do 100 box jumps does not make you better at either of those things. Just a lot more tired, being fatigued all the time is not the answer to good health *shocking it*. Fix the recipe, Its always a recipe, most people stir it up wrong and risk injury or get the wrong results. Just change the recipe your living to better suit your goals. Unsure of the recipe? Take a nutrition course and ensure 8 hrs sleep and at least 1 hr a day of fitness, adapt from there.

I prefer free weights over machines. When I wake up I do my cardio for the day then I eat a big breakfast. Near the end of the day I do my weight lifting for the day then I eat a big dinner. I'm 33 now and have gained some muscle but not a lot. But what I am doing works for me. From my experience I feel better mixing cardio with weight lifting. I think that is what most people feel but some people will always want to choose a side. In the end their are always opinions that will never be changed so arguing about it is just silly.

      Jeff wasnt exhausted after the cone hops.
      The point was that u take away blood flow from targetted mucles, to a different area of the body, and thus have less strength (idk exact scientific wording), to perform a strength workout, and that's why it 'kills gain'.

      @deeptewari 7 лет назад +25

      And make sure if you hit weights, go light. There is no reason to ego lift, you want to practice form and get it right, also work on your flexibility--- it helps in the long run. You are going to get a lot more strength until you are like 25, so don't worry about that right now, focus on the science behind lifts.

    For my own workouts and for my clients, I always put resistance exercises first for that same reason of being able to reach a higher rep or weight, and also when your muscles are exhausted from resistance training, cardio becomes endurance training as your muscles will be exhausted.

      Sensei Ron you can do cardio. Just rest 5 minutes and warm the body part you are going to work on after the treadmill

    2) you didn’t give your self enough time to recover after cardio. That’s obviously gonna effect your pull ups if you attempt it immediately.

In other words, with the explanation in your video that your body is sending the blood to your legs, so there is less for your back, wouldn't the same be true if you do pullups, and then do seated rows? Or curls? Or anything, really? What makes the muscle fatigue from cardio different than muscle fatigue from a resistance/strength exercise? It seems to me like the example you showed simply holds true only for the very first movement of the day, cardio or not. Can you explain further?
