• Cardio and weights are an unholy combination.
  Everyone knows that. If you do too much
  weightlifting, it gets hard to run because you
  weigh too much. If you do too much running, you
  lose all those sweet strength and size gains you
  got from all that weightlifting. Best to stick
  with one and leave the other alone.
• Kind of, anyway. While it can be true that
  mixing cardio and weightlifting isnt good for
  certain groups of people, for the vast majority
  of us its just fine. Professional powerlifters
  may not want to sacrifice their strength to run,
  and pro runners dont want to get too heavy and
  slow down. Unless you fall in one of those two
  groups, its important to do both to improve your
  fitness as much as possible. Strength and
  stamina are equally important to everyday life,
  and when it comes right down to it, that is what
  most training is for, to improve a persons
  ability to do the things that life requires of
  them.

• Lets use weight loss as an example. The vast
  majority of people that want personal training
  want to lose weight at some point or another.
  Both weightlifting and cardio play a role in
  burning calories and cutting fat, but in
  different ways. The most traditional way to lose
  weight, by doing lots of cardio, is effective
  because a session of HIIT or a run can burn more
  calories than a session of weightlifting can.
  However, weightlifting increases your muscle mass
  and muscle density, which increases your
  metabolism and burns more calories while you are
  at rest. Therefore, doing both cardio and
  weightlifting is going to be best for losing
  weight quickly. Not to mention it will prepare
  you for helping your friend move both by giving
  you the strength to lift the couch and the
  stamina to carry it up the stairs.
