Gym training combination: cardio, strength and endurance?

[Climber]

In the gym I always do a cardio session combined with weight/strength training for certain muscle groups and endurance training for other muscle groups. This allows me to train a bigger body part in one session. Anyone else doing this? Any other interesting schemes?

How about splitting cardio and weights into totally different sessions, or foregoing cardio altogether for a while. My favorite change-of-pace workout is what is sometimes called German Volume Training. Instead of my normal 3 sets of 8 for exercises, I'll do a 10 sets of 10 workout to totally exhaust the muscle group. I do this every few months, and it has lead to some real gains, especially in my shoulders.

Looks nice for endurance training. Will try

hmm.. well I don't do them near the same time anymore. I used to mix HIIT with weight lifting, but my schedules changed. now I just lift weights after work then go hit up muay thai.

Yep I always do that at the gym with my guy friend/crush. We try to do most of everything :)

I start with cardio (45 min) then some muscle resistance (legs, arms, back) then endurance (legs, abs). It's super satisfying, if I can, I add swimming

I always do that, learned that from my big brother who is pretty yoked

Generally strength training should be done fresh for maximum gains, I wouldn't train endurance afterwards. If I was training power I might be tempted to work endurance after that to keep a respectable level but generally I prefer to create a base of strength then train power endurance on a different cycle... the problem is sending mixed signals to the muscles.

I don't do standalone cardio. I do circuits/complexes with occasional jump rope. My goals are not aesthetic in nature so I don't have any reason for doing splits in terms of body parts either.

I do HIIT cardio, and I also do a lot of super setting and little rest periods when I lift so my HR is always between 130-150. Which is most people's cardio HR, it's a double effect.

All About heart rate.

I don't ever wanna go above 170.. faarrkk!!!

I don't think I've ever gone that high

Naa I haven't touched a treadmill in a year. When I go to the the gym I go there to lift things up and put them down ^^. Cardio is just so boring in my opinion.

I used to go to the gym. It was kinda boring and totally OP for daily activities. Now, I just occasionally haul 60 lbs of soil from my car to my house.
