How much cardio should you really be doing?

In Episode 117 of Your Ultimate Comeback, Brad and Raquel break down one of the most misunderstood topics in fitness: cardiovascular training.

If you’ve ever felt stuck between “I need more cardio” and “I don’t want to lose muscle,” this episode is for you.

Brad introduces a powerful but often overlooked method called Peripheral Heart Action (PHA) Training — a protocol dating back to the 1960s that alternates upper and lower body movements to create a powerful wave of circulation. The result?

• Improved cardiovascular health
• Better vascular function
• Leaner physique
• Stronger muscles
• Less joint stress than traditional cardio

You’ll learn:

• Why excessive traditional cardio can backfire
• How to get cardiovascular benefits without pounding your joints
• How to structure a PHA workout
• How often to use it
• How to apply progressive overload within this method
• Why this approach helped a client thrive after quadruple bypass surgery

If you're short on time but still want elite-level conditioning and muscle preservation, this conversation will change how you train.

Train smarter. Protect your joints. Build your comeback.
