It's important to warmup first, before doing any kind of strenuous exercise like weight training or even cardio. Light cardio for 10-15 minutes is a good way to warm up the muscles before exercise. Do your stretches after your cardio warmup, THEN warmup using weights.
I'll go dig up the relevant links, but you should NOT do your heavy fat-burning cardio together with your weight training. If you are doing both on the same day, make sure they are spaced at least 5 hours apart. If your objective is to bulk, doing both at the same session will hamper your goals...
