Does doing cardio or something like squats straight after your neural charge workout take away from the various positve effects of the neural charge workout. Now I have seen how Christian uses a neural charge workout a few hours before weights however due to time constraints I was thinking on some days I would do some cardio, on some days maybe calves and forearms or even squats straight after - will this reduce the effectiveness of using neural charge workouts?
I think the whole point of the neural charge workouts is to keep your CNS from burning out and interfering with your other strength-based workouts. This was taken directly from “Look Like a Bodybuilder, Perform Like an Athlete” article:

Based on what he said, I would think the neural charge workouts are more for enhancing (and having a quicker recovery from) your strength-based workouts, instead of the strength-based workouts hindering the effects the neural charge workout.
Thanks a lot, this is very helpful
