to tell you the truth back in my day.. Last year i used to do it before and after and i must say it works like a charm but you need a lot of sleep for the next day and do it over again. now i do it before.
I do cardio for 45 minutes in the morning and then lift heavy at night it works. i cut and losing weight at the same time i gaining muscle. it depends on what you trying to do though.
I'm trying to lose the last of my love handles and get definition. is gonna take me 3 month and i know for sure it will work.. wished you the best luck bro..don't take it from me because i stared to hit the gym serious 2 month ago and have been working out for 2 month straight without resting any day..
i have been working out for 7 years, back then i was loosing weight and gaining weight for football so now i want definition and be ripped.so now i'm doing it the right way.. hope i helped in someway..
45 cardio before workouts helps alot specially in the mornings..

It'll be fine if it's like 5 - 10 minutes for a warm up, but if you're actually doing a cardio workout before lifting that's counter productive.
I'd rather save my energy for the weights and lift maximally instead of wasting it before hand.
Edit:
If you're running early in the morning and lifting at NIGHT that's a different story completely. Give yourself adequate time between the two and they won't affect each other.Sheiko? My journey to 1,500+ @ 165
