For some reason, I do actually love doing HIIT. It's a lot more fun for me because I don't get bored with it since i'm changing pace every minute.

Yeah. The quickness of it is nice too. Sometimes I wonder how people in the gym can go longer than 45 minutes of cardio. I've seen people do cardio for 65 minutes. I'm like "Whoa... mucle loss!"

<font color="blue">I must disagree slightly with this. I love long duration cardio as well. I can become so relaxed while on a machine or outside for 45 minutes to an hour. You can enjoy nature or read a mag or watch some tv while inside. While you may become a bit catabolic, long duration also has many benefits for cardio health and fat burning. </font>

Usually, the one's I see doing long cardio are ones that do no lifting at all, which is why I made the comment about muscle loss.

<font color="blue">That's true, but don't you find it ironic that dudes like Ronnie and Jay can do two hours of long distance cardio a day on a cut and keep all that muscle? I have always wanted to know how much Clenabutrol and Deca those guys ingest on a daily basis? </font>

Yeah. It is pretty amazing that they do that.

What are Clenabutrol and Deca? Are they types of steroids?

My cardio session was brutal but I enjoyed it! </font>
