Another question about steady state/ target heart rate. You said this in not necessarily good for cardiovascular health. How come??? But you said great for fat loss,right. So what type is good for cardiovascular??

Whoa! Point me at where I wrote that so I can edit, clarify and/or delete it! :o

I think you may have misunderstood me. What I probably meant to say was that moderate intensity cardio, which is what I advocate the use of, provides cardiovascular benefits but is not going to develop your cardiovascular capacity to the degree that HIIT or higher intensity cardiovascular activity will. You still develop a massive amount of capacity with moderate intensity steady state cardio, but not as much as you will utilizing HIIT. Both are good for the heart.

My fault, I am so sorry :o I reread,and you said I would benefit, but that it wasn't designed for cardiovascular health. It was posted in my thread about steady state. I understand now :nod:
