The Mutant posted the Instagram story with the caption, “Let’s hear them today.” Many questions were asked of the 29-YO bodybuilding legend. However, the most splashy question was asked by one of the fans who stated, “Do you walk or do anything before fasted cardio or just go straight to it?” The question took Nick by surprise, and he responded in a dazed manner.

The Mutant responded by asking, “People warm up before cardio? Is that a natural thing?” From his reply, anyone can understand the vagueness of the question. Moreover, he replied in shock, “No, I go and do cardio.” After responding to the question, Nick laughed, addressing the question till the end.

Concluding his answer, he said, “I don’t warm up before cardio. I have never heard of such a thing. Warm up before cardio? What? No. You get on the bike, you start peddling, you crank up the resistance and you peddle your little heart out.” Walker went on to explain the entire process of cardio. Walker also added, “What is this warm-up before cardio? I can understand a warm-up before weight training. But for cardio? It’s cardio, just go do the d*** thing.” As it’s a well-known fact, cardio in itself is a warm-up exercise.

On the other side, Walker is preparing to lay his hands on the Sandow trophy this year amidst the immense competition that he is set to face.
