Many people turn to cardio as their main fitness activity, but it may not be the most effective exercise when trying to see results. On this week's episode, Betina and Nic address cardio misconceptions and how to integrate it into a more holistic fitness routine. They address how cardio and conditioning differ and why cardio complements strength training for optimal performance. The couple tackle myths like cardio's effectiveness on building muscle, how long sessions should be and if you can out-exercise a poor diet. The couple also share about what's going on professionally in the coming weeks as their family heads to Singapore & the Philippines for Betina's Nike work trip.
