YES. If your goal is to gain muscle and burn fat then you want to spare muscle.

This means getting Branched Chain Amino Acids Before and After cardio.

Use either 5g BCAA immediatly pre and post or if you use whey then 30 minutes before and right after you cool down.

.1 grams per pound of bodyweight of EAAs pre and post is also acceptable for the task
