Annoying question

[quotidianlight]

I am sure this has been asked a million ways to sunday. Yes I am one of those people trying to figure out how to balance cardio and strength workouts. I PROMISE I'm not asking which is better to do first But does anyone know of any benefits to doing one in the morning and one at night? I run 4 days a week and do P90 6 days a week and have a hard time getting them both done in the AM and at night I'm tired. Now I can run in my sleep but I may bonk myself with a weight when I keel over snoring.

Re: Annoying question

I would prefer cardio earlier as it's supposed to boost your metabolism when done earlier, and I have a hard time sleeping if i run too late in the day. I also prefer not to do weights in the morning as it seems my muscles aren't quite warmed up for a couple of hours (but that could be old age setting in LOL) and I think i'd be likelier to get an injury.

That said, I don't do either in the morning since I'm not a morning person..I exercise at lunch!

This is just my opinion..not based on anything..curious to see what others think.

Re: Annoying question

I do my hard cardios on days I don't lift. On my lifting days I do a slightly shorter, moderate intensity, cardio. I am not familiar with your strength program so I don't know if it could be adapted in that way.
