I'm beginning to think that different forms of cardio really effect people differently. My dad runs 3 miles almost every single day and doesn't lose weight too quickly.
But over the years I've noticed whenever I add running back to my regiment, the pounds just melt off. I only started running again recently and it's already huge. But my body simply will not allow 3 miles a day without my plantar flaring up.
I have also found pretty solid success with CrossFit style HIIT WODs, although I'm one of those who is guilty of overtraining this style and hurting my 1rm numbers in exchange for leaning up a lot and boosting conditioning.
What do you guys do, if anything, to add a bit of cardio in when cutting?
My favorite was always the HIIT wods. creating one that matched my lift for the day by putting accessory lifts into the WOD> although like I said, I think I tend to overtrain when I do this. That simple extra 1-2 miles seems to give me the most bang for my buck in terms of strength / fat loss balance.
