How to Balance Cardio and Strength Training as a Beginner
I'm trying to build a beginner routine that includes both cardio and strength training but figuring out the balance is kinda confusing 😭 I wanna improve my stamina while also getting stronger without spending my entire day working out. Some days I feel like I'm doing too much and other days I'm barely doing anything. How do you guys balance both when you're starting out?
I started with 3 strength sessions and 2 light cardio days a week and it felt pretty manageable
Bro I used to do cardio before lifting and wonder why I had zero energy left
Girl I usually do strength training first and finish with a little cardio
Honestly you don’t need to do everything in one session. Spread it out through the week
Walking is such an underrated way to improve stamina without exhausting yourself
Ngl keeping my workouts around 45 minutes helped me stay consistent with both
I’d focus on strength first and gradually add cardio as your stamina improves. No need to rush everything
Are you mainly trying to build muscle or improve endurance right now? That might help you decide how to balance both
