Question on cutting / cardio

[RandomGuy22]

I work out around 4-5 time sa week, and am currently cutting (and have been for about 2 weeks).

I do legs back and biceps

and the next day I do chest / triceps / shoulders

on the days wehre I do Legs back and Biceps, I do an ab workout (pretty intense, usually lasts around 30 mins, and I do 10 mins cardio) The cardio is 10 minutes of running at about a 6 mph pace.

On my days wehre I do chest / triceps / Shoulders I don't do an ab work out, and just do hardcore cardio. I do about 45 mins cardio and it totals out to around 4 miles and ... 400 or so calories burned. Is this a good amount of cardio / good work out plan for cardio?

Seems ok. I do the same, only 40 minutes cardio.

Some "hardcore bodybuilders" suggest that you shouldn't be running more than 40 minutes or you'll lose muscle mass. (scared )

What's your target heart rate? Just seems a bit strange, cause I burn 800-900 caliories in 40 mins

Chances are he's running on a treadmill and it tells him he burned 400 calories. Treadmills are so inaccurate it's not even funny.

what do you think of POLAR heart rate monitors?
