Im very strong but not very ripped… I use to do alot of cardio maybe like 3-5 times a week but now I do alsmot nothing, the only cardio I do is about 30-60 minutes of swimming because I’m taking a lifeguarding class and I want to incorporate more cardio…anyway my question is how much more cardio should i incorporate??

      3-4 days a week, do low impact high intensity cardio (interval training) for about 10-15mins, thats all you need, do them after your weight lifting shedule, although not every day, you need rest day in-between.
      Stationary cycling, skipping or jogging/running is very good
      Work-out fast/solid for 1-2mins then slow down for 1 min, then repeat going fast for 1-2 mins, then slow down for 1 min etc…..
      Diet is 75% of your weight loss success, so eat good food, no processed foods such as fried, packaged, take-aways, cakes biscuits, pastries etc….
