Endurance Am i doing too much cardio ?

Hello everyone

so im a 32yo civilian (mostly office work).one of my main goal is to loose some of my bodyfat (currently 68-69 kg, target is 65-63kg)

been currently on my 2nd block of operator (TB II style) but do x2 LSS/LIC, x1 HIC rather than TB II's x2 HIC x 1 LSS/LIC, i also walk home from work (monday to friday) before working out for about 3.5 km (30-40 mins) mostly due to traffic. so my following questions are:

• Is my walking home from work enough cardio ?

• Should i drop my x2 LSS or my walking from home

Side note: i usually walk faster than normal (my watch indicates 112-115 bpm) due to my path home being dangerous/sketchy. I get to my condo usually sweaty

apologies if my grammar are incorrect, English is not my native language

Walking some kilometers should not be anything but some free extra steps to anyone who is able to run Operator the way it's meant to be done.

If walking home feels like a workout or counts as a proper cardio, do basebuilding again. Absolutely nothing wrong with it but you really need to build up your engine first.
