should I do cardio(running) a few hours after workout or not at all that day?
For the past couple of weeks I have been running for about 20-25 minutes in an effort to lean out.. about 2-3 hours after my workout.
Is this ok?

You should do it right after while you metabolism is ramped up and your glycogen stores are low. You will burn fat more effectively that way.

Personally I dont think my stomach could handle protein shake before cardio.

I think if you've got a decent amount of muscle mass (+ the fact im a natural ecto) your metabolizm should be humming right along anyway.
I guess it comes down to the individual and form over function.

BTW I love doing cardio right after lifting, It dosent take long for me to breath harder and sweat more vs if I just wake up and go do cardio at some random time of day,
always feel like I worked harder doing the same pace/intensity....

not eating after pre WO cardio is a great way to lose muscle. If you want to look like a stick insect then go ahead.
If your aim is to retain muscle then keep cardio to light sessions in the AM on an empty stomach then eat breakfast afterwards. Weights later in the day.
