YOu have to train your body to process fat more efficiently. That is through base building cardio. Here's some good info rather than hearing me preach about heart monitors, etc.:

I also agree with the comments about refueling within 45 minutes after a workout, espacially an intense workout. A 4-1 carb to protein mix is good, along with glutamine.

And to the original question, I like my cardio after lifting.
