Need a little clarification

[panntastic]

Hi guys
I'm currently on a quest to loose a fair amount of excess body fat and trim up a little after a year out.
I do 50/60 minutes fasted A.M cardio 6/7 days a week at very low intensity to keep in my fat burning zone. (Have heart rate monitor to assist)

My question is can I go straight on to lifting as soon as I have finished my cardio or is it best to leave it and get something to eat first?

Will lifting straight away be effected by the cardio or is it ok to just go from cardio to weights?

Another question

Whilst doing my lifting I'm doing moderate weights for 10/12 reps should I drop the weight and up the reps or up the weight and lower the reps?

Is there a winning combo whilst burning fat/ loosing weight or do I just find what works for me and my body?

Thanks in advance guys your advice has always spurred me on to achieve my goals

U want ur lifting to be heavy and intense so I would make sure u are well fuelled for it.... So I'd never do cardio b4 weights... I'd feel lethargic

Keep the weight training normal..... 8-12 reps, intense, moderate volume...

Intense weight training, a good energy debt via a clean diet and moderate intensity cardio

Thank you for that I will take it all on board.

I've just had a little girl so time available to train is precious I just need to know how to make the best use of my time.

Well very low long intensity cardio is not for you then m8

Cut the duration in half and double the intensity

Will this help me with my weight loss goals

I assume its all myth about zone training then?

Yes its a myth (for the most part)

And yes it will help u achieve ur goals

What are ur stats? BF being the big factor

[panntastic]

I'm 5'11"
114kg
25%bf (checked with callipers in 4 places)

I used to do strong man so still have a decent amount of muscle mass but my job took me away for a year (on and off) so training had to stop.

At 25% BF I'd focus on how many calories your burning during cardio and not the heart rate....

Burn as many as possible

Ok cool
This mornings cardio burned 837 calories (according to app)

So upping the intensity will work better thank you
