very impressed with the support here, and only 2 days in!!! no trolls or flamers on this board. just honest and helpful advice.
ended up doin 20 min on the stair climber 10 on the treadmill and then about 7 or so on the bike. mixed up the intensity on all of them with random intervals of incraseing speed resistance and incline. awesome cardio session! and still have about 900 calories left for the night!![Razz :P](./images/smilies/icon_razz.gif)

This is what I do. Right after the famine workouts I add an hour of running/jogging.Come day five I feel plenty miserable.anthon88 wrote:Just curious about the cardio. I start my famine on Monday. I read in 2.0 that you should add an hour of cardio to each workout day. I was planning on doing it right after I finished my workout. So, is a long jog the most ideal form of cardio for the famine phase?
Thanks

Oddly enough I seem to get better running performance on day 5 than on day 1. Workout performance on day 5 otoh..
