Question: Why do cardiovascular exercises oppose muscle mass gain.?
please explain meHealth Question & Answer


Answers:
Cardiovascular exercises work what's referred to as the "endurance layer" of muscle. This is smaller than your "fast-twitch" muscle (the kind of muscle that gets big and strong), so when you build your endurance layer, you are building up a smaller muscle, making your gains look smaller.

As the first commenter said, cardio also eats up your excess calories, which your muscles need, whether it burns food or fat. If you do cardio on an empty stomach and are relatively lean, it can begin to break down your hard-earned muscle tissue for energy.Health Question & Answer
