Cardio
By default, Dr. Muscle does not include cardio in your program. You don’t have to do cardio to get lean and doing too much can slow down your mass gains. But you may want to do cardio for other reasons (e.g. it’s like medicine for your health). High-intensity interval training (HIIT) is the most efficient cardio for fat loss (Boutcher, 2011), so I usually recommend it to clients who want to do cardio. To add a short HIIT session to your workouts, you can now simply toggle on "Cardio" in Settings. To add cardio to a single workout, add it as you would any other exercise (search for "HIIT Cardio").
