This isnt necessarily right either. What I have found that works best for 95% of all of my clients is a combination of power and endurance and then interval training cardio. Reason being, you burn more calories during your workout during endurance training and you burn more calories during recovering after heavy lifting.

In fact, there are alot of different places that recommend a split of either hypertrophy and endurance or power and endurance for a higher caloric expenditure.

How you break it up is up to you.
