IMHO, you should try the program as written. HIIT is different from medium intensity cardio; and if that's what you've been doing up until now, then this is a change. Change is good. Adding in more cardio, or different cardio, later can be done - but with some modifications to other things (discussed in the threads mentioned above).

Thanks Nat you are a wealth of info. I need to look into that. While I like the 3 days WT and 3 days cardio structure of BFL it didn't work with my WT-ish cardio: spinning and aquajogging which is also longer than 20 mins. Plus I was doing CKD. I have upped the carbs to about 60 grams a day . But now I have switched to a more CKD-like approach as I prefer to WO 4 days /week and approach UB muscles on separate days as well as some LB muscles..
I am not even doing the 12-10-8-6-12 and 12 routine anymore. I still do 2 exercises, sometimes 3 (gluteus is new and has some rehab goals) but now it is 10-8-6-4 for each exercise.
