is cardio before lifting weights a mistake?

[Erasiek]

I was reading and talking to people. Seems to be a lot of debate on this topic. Long story short, is cardio before lifting weights a mistake? Or is it okay to do? I wanted to do 30 minutes of cardio, get in a little sweat, then hit about 20 sets of weights. What do you think?

I don't think cardio before lifting weights is a mistake. It's a good warm-up.

Try it.

I like to do cardio before my leg day. It gets my legs nice and loose.

Don't overdo it on cardio, especially if you're going to heavy with the weight training.

Make sure you do 10 to 15 minutes of light cardio, save the heavy cardio, till after

I think you'll do fine with cardio before, lifting weights. It actually will help you stretch.

I would focus on stretching after your workout, it's very important to increase mobility and flexibility.

Bros. I think you'll be fine on fine minutes of cardio. I would go high intensity.
