You can still do cardio and maintain muscle mass. Sprinting is better than running miles and miles.
But, if you want to run marathons or triathlons, google "alex viada the Hybrid Athlete." He's a bodybuilder who maintains his muscle mass and strength while also doing triathlons. He has a background in biochemistry and works in pharmaceuticals. At least he used to. I'm not sure if he still does.
- tcoff91 8y agoGiven his background in body building and pharma, I would bet he is using PEDs to be able to be a hybrid athlete.

- gamblor956 8y agoI know a bunch of triathletes who look like that despite not using PEDs. They do, however, treat their bodies like temples and have the most rigorous diets I've ever seen.
- lj3 8y agoSame here, but there's no sense trying to convince the people here that.
