hey how do you guys think these compare in terms of cardio benefits
and getting in shape-losing fat running- the unquestioned holy grail for some. pros-improves cardio, good for the heart and lungs cons-over time can cause injuries to ankles and knees (myths that are not disproved or proved about it are according to many coaches it is the best for cardio training but according to many bodybuilders and powerlifters it can make you weaker if you do a lot of it) circut training pros-many mma guys like it because not only does it work cardio, it always keeps your body guessing and it doesn't really adopt to it cons-may not have enough steady state cardio in it skipping- almost every seems to like it from boxers to wrestlers to even weight lifters for me i like skipping the best because you can spirts in it and also steady state and it does not drain your legs and perhaps strength the way running does.... all have their place but to those who will stream about the greatness of running and how you should a lot of it but lets put it this way, some coaches will tell you bodybuilding can make you slow and bulky just look at many bodybuilders but they never mention running to much long distance can make you lanky,weak with no muscles at all just look at long distance runners anyways would love to hear your thoughs |

Your body does adapt, that's how your capacity increases.
There's a lot of ground reaction force (Newton's 3rd law and all that) involved in overground running, so I don't like to do it frequently tbh. |
