Ectomorph CARDIO for size

[B~RAD]

Just wanted to get a discussion on this. Many ectos have their own beliefs on when and how to do cardio to get the most benefit on being hungry the most often. so lets hear it. How much? when? how long? heart rate?

as we have discussed before, im an ecto. Ive come a long way though. i do utilize cardio even during the offseason to keep lean. Usually 2-3x a week, first thing in the morning before eating (take in aminos/lbs), on non training days. About 40-45 mins per session, at a powerwalking pace, i suppose. its about 3 mph on a treadmill. keeps me lean, as well as my clients. although, some need more cardio, some need less. but its always the same basics. It does help you to be hungry throughout the day.

personally i find i need 4-5 sessions of 30-40min AM cardio off season to help me eat 400-500g protein daily.

i cant believe how small an amount of food i thought i could grow on when i weighed 140lb.
