Running before heavy lifting. What's the consensus

[Ain't That Something]

I just ran 25 mn before doing my back workouts. I plan of running for bout half an hour before every workouts. What's the thought.

 

[PontiousPirate]

I just try to get my heart into the 170s, maybe 12 mins tops... but I always get my heart rate up before lifting

 

[Jesus]

Some nikkas hit the weights on a empty stomach. When I started working out I would get a 10-15 jog in. If you got the energy go for it. Tried running afterwards?

I have tried running after lifting but by the time I"m done with the weights I slack it off and push it to the next day and never end up running, that's why I rather Knock it up before lifting, bc I'm move motivated to lift than run anyway

 

[Just like bruddas]

I prefer running after my work outs, ya heart rate is already pumping.

 

[The Entity]

I do the opposite

 

[Just Curious]

That's what I do

 

[LastKING_BLU]

its not a problem unless you get to tired to lift

Lift.

Then do HIIT after work outs.
