Jogging while bulking?

Mico · Jul 15, 2006

I just recently switched to bulking. Before I was weightlifting 3 days a week, and jogging the other 3. Should I keep up with the jogging all 3 days or should I just drop to like 1 or 2? Thanks

I would drop down to 1-2, about 30 minutes each light cardio.

what would happen if you ran with dumbells?

i always wondered if it was cardio or weights....

I (having absolutley no knowledge of anything) would say it's just intense cardio.

i would say thats hard on the joints ;P

i tried running with a gal of milk b4 and almost threw out shoulder.

I would go with once a week at a moderate rate.

I would do 2 HIIT sessions a week. That will help burn the fat off and minimize muscle loss.

Don't run with weight.
Do more research into running form.

This question cannot be answered properly because we don't know your past or your stats. We don't know your body type either. In order to 'bulk' you need a caloric surplus, if you are jogging or running or performing cardio of some kind, you could very well be burning off calories that your body needs to grow.

Would it be possible to get some stats from you to get a better idea of your body type and how it might react to incorporating cardio with your bulk?
