how much cardio

Amazing! The UK is so different to Spain. Open up at 9ish, usually 9.30 'cause what's the rush?
Close for siesta from 2 - 5, then closed at 11. And forget about the weekends!
Then again I do live in the sticks. Would'nt have this problem if I was in a city that had a McDonalds!

pretty much the same for me when im dieting slightly different times though 5.30am train at around 5pm weights then cardio straight after this.

when shane is off work and im dieting i like to train 3 times and split weights from my cardio.
most cardio i go up to when im dieting is 2 hours a day.
i always make sure a meal comes after a training session weather it is weights or cardio. kind of like a reward for finishing.

when im not competing i still try and do cardio 3 times a week just 30 mins

Most competitors do cardio 2x time a day before competition. Usually, I do cardio 4 times a week for 30 minutes. I stick with HIIT. It really depends on what kind of body look you're going for.
