Question by misscancer10: What should I be focusing on more? Weight training or Cardio for major weight loss.?
ok i work in the morning during the week and i already get up really early so i can’t do any cardio in the morning before work. so in the evenings when i go to the gym what should i focus on more for major weight loss? i want to lose weight but i want it done the right way so i dont mind if it comes off a little slow. i want to be lean and have definition in my arms and legs but everybody says cardio, cardio, cardio but on the other hand some say focus on muscle training because muscle burns fat. so if i can only work out during the week in the evening and on the weekend in the mornings. how much cardio should i do and muscle training and does it matter which comes first?

Focus equally on both. Usually I prefer the cardio first since I feel like it increases blood flow to your muscles before you lift weights. I do about 30 minutes of cardio and then 30-40 minutes of weights every other day.
