| Scratch, thanks for responding. Some clarification:
on B) is your feedback just a personal preference or do you feel that strength training first followed by cardio is less optimal than cardio first followed by strength training?
on C) I wasn't clear enough. The recommendation is to get the full 1 hour of cardio with an additional 20 minutes of rest right in the middle, so 1 hour and 20 minutes elapsed time.
on D) the question isn't whether the short (<7 minutes) breaks are better or worse than the longer (>30 minutes) breaks but rather whether breaks of 8 to 29 minutes are less optimal than either the short or longer breaks.
