I read your article in the latest issue of Planet Muscle and I could not wait until I could get to the gym to try out Your Mega-set routine. WOW!!! Burn to the bone is about right. I loved it. I have never seen a routine like this before. It hit me that this routine could be used in a cutting phase. It was intense. It burned to the bone. I’m 50, could I use it to get under 7% body fat? How much cardio should I do?Author
Preston Rendell replies: I would do cardio 3 times a week, no more than 45 minutes each session. Getting to 7% bodyfat has to do with gradually reducing your carbs. If you overdue your cardio you will lower you testosterone level and you will lose muscle.
Cutting up is all about lowering carbs and insulin balance. Watch out for anything with high sodium in it, as it will smooth you out by holding water. You will get all the sodium you need that occurs naturally in food. You can get bigger and stronger, even at you age. Don't over train and don't over diet. Keep your protein intake about 1 gram of protein per pound of desired bodyweight.
Good luck and keep burning to the bone!
