Cardio Before or after weights?

[z_silversurfer_]

Just wondering if I should work my legs or any part of my body before I do cardio or after?? I'm trying to lose weight so I know I want to do at least 30 min of cardio a day.

do it after. build muscle first, then hit the cardio hard.

lol, okay, afterwards is better than before.

hi!

I'm with Flex on this one, if you are trying to build any kind of muscle in your body, you should do your cardio after lifting weights...BILLIE

But it seems if do squats before I jog then I would just be tired out?

I'd do it A.M. and work out P.M. or vice versa.

don't do your cardio on leg day.

I agree. I expect you aren't lifting every day, right? Do you cardio on the off days. If you must do them together, do it after lifting for sure. If you must do cardio on leg day, try a bike instead of treadmill. Variety is good anyway.
