Do you do cardio the same day as heavy leg strength workouts

When you go heavy on legs, do you do cardio afterwards? I read online it's probably not a good idea, but I wanted to see what you guys think/do.

Yup
but I usually just do treadmill, light walk.
On the days that I don't do legs, I willl do the stepper or intense eliptical.0 -
I do a little light cardio to warm up (mile jog) and then cool down with 5-10 minutes on the recumbent bike. If I do my leg training right then I'm way too wobbly for full out cardio.0

agree, when weights are done correctly you should not be able to or want to do cardio
I'm way more tired on weight days0 -
if i do it has to be some non leg intensive like krankcycle or goofing off in the pool0
