    People do way to much cardio, it can actually be counter-productive!
    Some of the amounts people do is crazy.
    I know from experience if i do **** loads of cardio on low calories my weight loss slows dramatically.
    If i do 20 30 mins 5x a week its all good.

    I could not agree more! I have found that when I decrease my steady state moderate intensity cardio andn increase my strength training I do best. Right not it's strength 2 times a week, one hour or so moderate intensity steady state (bike ride), one HIIT and usually one 3 mile walk. That's plenty of cardio!
