Up to you really. I do it on off days when I can be assed/have the time. If you want to do it on the days you lift go for it. I'd prefer to do it after lifting though, tired legs and squats and DL don't really mix. As long as it's not. Interfering with your recovery days it's not a problem at all.

It is entirely up to you and your capacity for work and ability to recover.
Just start slow and see how it works out for you.

Does 30 minutes of running effect your leg recovery, if done on a recovery day? Like is the running strenuous enough on your calves that you're not allowing them to repair? Also, I want to make sure I'm lifting correctly. I do this routine every other day, correct?

Running won't impact strength but it may reduce your work capacity on the same day and result in your work volume being sub optimal

You aren't cutting you fat retard. Loosing weight and cutting aren't the same thing. Dyels always say this and I want to fucking kill them every time.

Thanks for the correction. Enlighten me, however, as cutting means to lower ones BMI, correct? So if I'm trying to lower my bmi, while also attempting to gain lean muscle, that would be cutting, correct?

cutting is reducing bf% while maintaining muscle mass

You have no muscle mass to maintain. BMI is a useless metric for individuals and only really has value for tracking population trends. bf% is a better metric to track

>You have no muscle mass to maintain
I'm pretty sure OP has at least decent leg muscles. Fatties are known to have sikk calves

>>38098095
they have calves but nothing else usually

Saying that he has no mass to maintain is not correct then.

If you can do cardio on your off days, you aren't squatting heavy enough.

To bulk/build muscle, you need to be in a caloric surplus, to cut/drop weight, you need to eat at a deficit, or cardio yourself into a deficit.

You could try doing a leangains type recomp
