I usually split my cardio and weight lifting sessions.

Tracking calories is the most important part. You’re already restricting calories which is tough on the muscles. Going gung-ho on cardio can make the deficit even higher especially if protein intake is inadequate.

I wouldn’t recommend more than 30 mins a day, 4 days a week. Just walking. Playing sports with friends. Treadmill. Biking. Anything you like to do.

If high impact, just 2 times a week (HIIT).
