Cardio right after lifting?

[trojan1444]

Lift for 50 minutes, then cardio for 20....

Is this absolutely bad because it will kill your gains, or acceptable?

i do a 1h workout then a 40min cardio... works for me

[fspot]

no it wont kill your gains, but compared to doing cardio BEFORE strength training, it will burn MORE fat.

Acceptable, but it's best if you can separate your cardio and lifting sessions.

what vido said but if you've got the time do liftin gin the morning and cardio at night or visa versa

Depends on the duration and intensity of the cardio. I like to run a quick 8-10 minute mile after most workouts, and find that doesn't effect muscle/strength goals at all. 20 minutes of light cardio is alright.
