How would this work for losing fat while on the leanmass Test/EQ/Tren Cycle??

[BigRanger]

Ok basically what i want to do i s gain lean mass and lose some body fat....now i know its tough and all but i know i can do it...............So would this be right for the cardio portion?? I was thinking of doing intervals....Say running (decently fast) for a minute straight and then walking for say 1 and half minutes (for about 45 minutes total) and as time goes on i will shorten the amount i walk.........Also Im doing the DFHT workout and am trying to build a solid base and cut around it........So how does that Cardio sound say 3-4 times a week??? And ive really never done cardio before so i figure it'll help......................help me out with some thoughtful imput.......thanks..

Loki from Avant Labs suggested doing HIIT cardio two to three times a week. For better nutrient partitioning durging bulking he suggested doing 6-10 100 meter (approx. 15 second) sprints, followed by 45-60 seconds of rest, three times a week. Give it a shot, Im pretty sure it wont hurt your gains.

I also think you'd be best to shorten the high intensity intervals. As suggested above, sprint 100 meters or so, then walk back and repeat. If not used to it, doing 10 of these is tough, and will only take 20 minutes tops. That leaves you an extra 25 minutes to do something more enjoyable than cardio.

As an alternative, you could do the same thing on a stationary bike. This might save your joints a bit, especially if you are a big guy.

However, from a personal and observational view, I believe there is a difference in the type of cardio you choose and how it relates to fat loss. Cardio in which you support/move your entire weight seems to cause more bf loss. Perhaps it causes a signal to the body to make the movement easier by losing unnecessary weight. Because you are weight training, the muscle has to be kept, thus it sheds the fat. Am I way off base here....maybe? But think about the physiques of the following people, and the activity they do.

Sprinters/Mountain Climbers/Runners
Cyclers
Swimmers

They all do a lot of work, however the top group is leanest, and as the weight moved becomes less, the fat levels go up.

To rephrase Grizz from another post, "if you want to look like a sprinter, train like a sprinter." Sprinters look bad ass compared to distance runners, who look like Ethiopians (given: 78.4% of endurance runners ARE Ethiopians).

Anyways, run sprints. High intensity, all out effort sprints. Give yourself enough rest between sprints to gain a little wind, but keep you heart rate up the whole time. Do this if you want to look like a sprinter, i.e. lean muscle mass, low body fat, athletic.
