talk to me when you have 17 years in to hell I mean marriage son.
I watched JBJ, and Hector Lombard Gas in their last fights.
And I know any 2 month personal trainer will say do both but as one that has tried to unsuccessfully hybrid both energy systems to an elite level throughout my life. I'm starting to wonder should I have just concentrated on being strong as I possible, or have Great Marathon/tour de France type level cardio from the get go.
It's true that the more you focus on one the other will suffer but there's no need to only do strength or endurance training although if I had to choose one it would be strength. The hormonal, muscle and joint benefits strength training provides trumps the benefits of cardio IMO (increasing catabolism for improvements in V02 max? Nah).
No reason why you can't do a mix of both for health purposes though.
Yeah I guess I just want to be a GSP type of dude that can wrestle,lift,jog,do gymnastics,train with the Olympic track and field team, just Canada's version of Steve rogers
Oh you mean Captain Canuck:
Strength > Cardio IMO.
Too much cardio cannibalizes your muscles.
Powerlifting makes you big, strong and confident and actually gives you loads of extra energy throughout the day.
Try doing a deadlift session one day and go jogging for 5k the next, see which makes you feel better afterwards.

For me, when I am in running shape, jogging (although 5k is very short for a jog). By far. An easy run in a really nice environment like the beach, a trail in the mountains, a really nice city, you feel absolutely amazing afterwards. Happy and refreshed. After deadlifting you feel like you have... just lifted something really ****ing heavy. Kind of beat up. A feeling of satisfaction if you achieved your goals, but hardly glowing with well-being. That's how it is for me, anyway.
Plus it isn't like cardio exercises don't build strength as well. I'd take regular jogging over deadlifts for posture correction any day.
Where's the hockey stick?Oh you mean Captain Canuck:
