I usually do the opposite exercise of what you think will cause the soreness - like if you are doing weights, do light cardio. #notscientific though

There's no 1:1 reliationship between muscle soreness and muscle growth.. irrespective, light cardio been shown not to bring many health benefits; it's the high intensity (interval) training (or HIIT) that's does so https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-intensity_interval_training …

I was more suggesting that you might be just wasting your time doing light cardio :)

got it - but if it's after an intense workout, it's more of a cool down, which is more what I was getting at. I wasn't suggesting it as a workout on its own.

I mean long cardio does burn more calories though.

It does, but to Paul's point, the studies on HIIT suggest more overall benefit than the usual cardio workout, possible the continued burn after the workout.

From what I know we agree with Olivia on the superiority of health benefits of HIIT > cardio :)

I actually have been trying to build muscle so my HIIT game is weak.

You could try doing 5x5 for weights? I think that might be more compatible w doing HIIT? It's only 3 days per week - doing 5x5 for squat, bench press, barbell row, overhead BB press, deadlift. e.g. https://stronglifts.com/5x5/
