[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'd really just like to drop a few pounds. I've already ramped up the incline and speed so I'll try the interval training. I also use some of the weight machines so is it better if I do them first and then jump on the treadmill?[/quote] If you're trying to lose weight burning calories is the most important factor. As far as when to lift the reason bodybuilders lift first is to try to retain as much muscle as possible. You should be lifting in a 12-15 rep range to get the cardio and endurance benefits so don't worry about when to do which unless you get to a point where you've built a lot muscle you want to keep. I personally like cardio first to get warmed up for lifting. And sometimes I'll even split the cardio. 15 minutes before and 15 after my lifting. [/quote]
