Cardio before or after weight training?

"Before or after workout – when should you do cardio? Confused about the right time for cardio? I've broken it down in this reel – science-backed, result-focused! Whether your goal is fat loss, endurance or muscle gain, this will help you plan your workouts smarter," Vinod wrote in the caption.

Vinod further broke down the science behind it, saying, "After weight training, your muscles stay sore for 2-3 days, and your body continues to burn calories during that time. In contrast, with cardio, your muscles get sore during the workout, and the calorie burn happens during the session itself." Since cardio can still be done when you're tired, unlike weight training, he recommends doing it after your workout for more effective fat loss.
