yes matt it is dont get me wrong, its great foor heart health and endurance. im not saying that cardio should be ignored by any means. im just saying that you dont have to spend three days a week on a treadmill. if youre eating at a deficit, a healthy deficit, then you dont have to rely as heavily on cardio as one may think.

take me for example i could go out running everyday but my knees cant take it. id be useless for a few days after a mile run. so i personally have not been doing as much cardio. and for those who are morbidly obese and may not be able to hit a treadmill for any amount of time without getting discouraged. it could be detrimental to their weight loss. once you get more fit and can do the cardio, you should.
