It's always a good idea to do at least 20 minutes of cardio. Ideally this should be done each day before you begin the weightlifting portion of your workout. If that is too much to squeeze into one session, try to get your cardio in during the morning or alternate lifting and cardio days.

It's Thigh or Die time. Burn some definition into your thigh muscles with this grueling leg workout!
