? for Berardi: Cardio While Bulking?

This is for John Berardi, or anyone else who might already know…

Did you, in your 3 year unbelievable transformation from 140-210 lbs then back to 195 lbs do any cardio with all that food you ate? Obviously you lifted, but I couldn’t imagine only working out 4 times a week for lifting for 40-60 minutes at a time, while eating over 8000 calories a day and not gaining mostly fat.

So, any cardio thrown in there? I ask because I’m thinking of starting up your diet routine as i’ve been stuck at 5’10" 180 lbs for a good little while now (10-12 weeks), and am ready to break through that into the 210+ weight. Any tips on cardio would be great if you did it!

Not sure if this helps but;

I’m at 140lbs, I had to eat 4800 calories a day, training 4 times a week to go from 130lbs-140lbs, and it took me 2 months, gained little to no fat, and I didn’t do any cardio.

He wrote an article that included details of how he did it under “the winning formula”. As a general example (i think).

You should check out his sections here under authors or look at his site. Lots of info.
