For people whose primary fitness activity is lifting or sports: how much cardio do you do? Specifically, what do you do, for how long, and how often?

My primary fitness activity is a sport (recreational, 3x a week), with lifting 2-3x a week. I’m trying to do more LISS cardio outside of these for general cardiovascular health and possibly improved stamina.

Edit: Thanks for all the replies, y’all!

    Your conditioning sessions sound interesting! Would love to learn more about your particular routine if you’re comfortable with sharing. I’m comfortable with bodyweight stuff like burpees but I’m a bit intimidated by KB swings.

      If you’re interested in conditioning from a lifting POV, I’d recommend the book Tactical Barbell II which covers conditioning in the Tactical Barbell system. Also good is Ross Enamait’s Infinite Intensity.

      I don’t really do anything abnormal during my conditioning days. Just 15-20mins of moderate to high heart rate work
