Hi,

I'm trying to put on muscle and lose fat at the same time. Every three days I jog on the treadmill for 5 miles. I try to do the treadmill more often but it's hard to fit the treadmill in in addition to the lifting. I've heard cardio can be bad for adding muscle but I never hear how much is too much and is it better to do cardio before or after you lift? Is it bad to do the same day you do legs or the day after you do legs?

I can burn a lot of calories on the treadmill so it's been really helpful with losing weight, along with diet. But I don't want to negate what I'm doing with the weights. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Riley
