Change the Cycle

You don't lift the same way all year, so why should the frequency, intensity, and duration of your cardiovascular workouts stay the same? They shouldn't.

When you're trying to add muscle, keep your cardio to a minimum. This will help your body concentrate on building muscle.
When you're trying to get lean, increase your cardio training to help strip away excess body fat. Also, alternate your cardio methods, for example incline treadmill 1 day, or elliptical or sprints the next. Changing it up keeps your mind motivated and your body making progress.
