How often should i do cardio each week while also weight training three times a week?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends.: You can do weight training fast enough to make it a "cardio" work out. Or you can do a cardio routine in addition to the weight training. Do it at least 3 times a week. If less than this, your body cannot adjust to it, and it always hurts and is as hard to do as if you never did it, practically and you won't improve endurance as much, either.
