I was always under the impression that it's easier to burn fat while doing weights...

weights help push fat outside of your muscle groups... which helps the cardio burn the fat easier.

Last year when I started working out I would do light weights & ab workouts... then run in the afternoon & I was losing like 5 lbs a week. I went from 230 down to 165 for a good while... then I slacked off b/c a new job did not allow me time to work out & I crept back up to 190lbs. *shudder*
