u may want to divide you lifting into 2 days upper on one day, lower on another and follow them both by cardio..if u r lifting real heavy then make cardio for another day..if u choose to do both in the same day then do wts first, otherwise the cardio may make u too tired to lift with proper form and benefit..i do the wt lifting and cardio on separate days..the more muscle u have the faster the fat comes off.. cardio will burn both fat and muscle so keep doing both types of exercise.. belly fat can be gotten rid of with diet changes also..
