Meals with Cardio and Weights

[hollaback]

I have a few quick questions here. Trying to gain muscle and lose fat

1) I want to do both cardio and weights first thing in the morning when I wake up. Should I do cardio or weights first and what should I eat before if anything? (When doing weights and cardio I don't plan on doing intense cardio...45 minutes speed walking on treadmill at incline)

2) Whichever one I do first (cardio or weights) should I eat or drink something in between the two or go right into the other session?

3) What should I eat immediately after the second session...shake, real food, or both? or drink a shake immediateley after and food later?

4) Is it better to do cardio and weights back to back or do one in the morning and one in the afternoon?

Thanks

Use the search command please.

Seperate the cardio and weights first off. Cardio in morning. Weights afternoon.

To lose fat you need to restrict calories to put yourself into a deficit, -500 to -1000. If you are calorie restricted you will not ADD muscle, you need surplus calories to make any gains. If you shed off the fat first you will "look" more muscular, then you can change your diet to start putting on lean mass.

What are you eating, how much, how big are you, what is your bodyfat?
The more info you give the more inclined others will be to assist you.
