Lean bros who cardio - hiit or liss?

Diet is in check but going to add in some cardio. Does it really matter or is one type superior? I want to keep mass but drop BF like most people. Misc doesnโ€™t lift but they cardio? In for replies

If you're looking to get really lean, then go with LISS. Walking is actually probably the best thing to do past a certain point of leanness to preserve muscle mass and burn calories without spiking your appetite or hampering recovery.

This, if lifting is what you mostly care about and do 5+ times a week.
Otherwise HIIT or whatever is fine OP.

Personally I prefer to do sports for cardio (and I love walking, but I donโ€™t consider it โ€œcardioโ€ in that sense)
Real Madrid, Miami Heat, New York Jets.

So walking is better than sprinting?

Wot
-Some people say good things come to those who wait, truth is, good things come to those who work..... who work later.....who work harder...... who are willing to go further than anyone else to get them. If you're waiting for good things to come to you, you'll be waiting for a pretty long time.

Why not both?

Take a 3 mile run one day, burpees and sprints the next.
Survival. When the jungle tears itself down and builds itself into something new. Guys like you and me, we end up dead. Doesnโ€™t really mean anything. Or, if we happen to live through it, well that doesnโ€™t mean anything either.
