Try less rest between stes to keep your heart rate up.

Higher reps can help, or drop sets.

Ugh, won't do shit unless it's circuit training style, which would lead to overtraining if you'd like to continue your bodybuilding type training. Man up and get on the treadmill and clean up the diet.

I'm totally with alpmaster. I love circuit training but with a twist. I train fighters so I do a lot of plyometrics for power. Really great cardio, endurance, strength, and power. I'm not a body builder per say but I'm 5' 11" 200lbs and is lean enough to carry a six pack, sort of. I'm 50 so I get a little slack in my class. LOL Circuit training will burn fat. You can alternate days between lifting for strength and circuit training. Punching the bag is a great cardio workout. I'd rather punch the bag over running on the treadmill.

bag work is not a bad idea but never done it before so would not know how to workout on the bags!

YouTube has some good basic instructions on bag work both punching and kicking. I would say to get some really good gloves like Ringside or Everlast. They're a little more spendy but it's really worth it. The most common injury among boxers are their hands. Paticularly, their knuckles or the small bones in the back of the hand. Due to your weight training, you can probably punch a lot harder than your hands can handle. It takes time for the small bones and tendons/ligaments in your hands to get accustomed to taking such impact. Safety first.
