You're fine. I'd consider that a small warmup, and unless you're going over 30 min. EVERDAY (and even then using AAS you'd probably be alright) you're not gonna be hurting a bulk. Heck, if you're not so lean it might even help cut some fat off!

yeah with aas you could run the boston marathon 3 times a week and still gain mass...if you're goin natural and a 'hard gainer', i'd cut the cardio for now, do an 8 week bulk, then cut down if you need to

You really think this for a 130-145bpm warm up to get the blood flowing? :nono:

Tek,

You are fine doing warmups for 5 mins if you keep your heart rate around 130bmp.

Just don't do cardio before weight training, and if you do cardio after weight training make sure you eat something first. Other than that, if you are getting enough calories and you are training properly you'll be fine.

After gaining 28 pounds on my first cycle, with a huge gain in my waistline during said cycle, I'd say cardio is a very sound idea during a cycle. I found that when starting out on my current cut that my endurance for the first 3 or 4 weeks was absolute ****, and that my cardiovascular conditioning had really gone in the crapper.

i prefer to play sports etc when I'm bulking and leave the treadmill, bikes etc for when I'm cutting (in addition to the sports of course)

playing racquetball for about 30minutes to an hour 3-5 times a week always kept me lean on a bulk but if diet is in check you can still put on the muscle...its just nice not to put on any of the related fat...lol

regards,
COTC
