Weight training helps in the sense that you build muscle, which over the course of the day, burns more calories than fat does. But you still need a cardio workout to burn calories and to help weight loss in the long run. It is also critical for your long-term cardiovascular health. Alternate days - do your weight training 2-3 days a week and do cardio on the other days. You shouldn't weight train every day anyway.
weight training def. burns calories. Most effectively when you do you cardio rite after weight training. I recently wrote something about this http://myfitmate.blogspot.com/ basically theres a lot to do with how your muscle feeds and how increasing your heart rate (in turn heating fat cells) ater a weight session assist in muscle consuming fat.
Quick answer, yes, muscle burns calories while you are not traing so buliding muscle burns more calories. Muscle weighs more though so your main result will be the tape measure not the scale, I would suggest that at least three time a week you increase your cardio ( tread mill) to half an hour, even if you have to cut back on some of the rest to do it. It will probably burn more calories, and will improve your cardio fitness.
It depends on whether you are trying to build muscle or lose fat. To be the most effective, you should be doing a balance of both. I know some people who ONLY weight train, but their main goal is building muscle. I do both. I will do an hour of cardio, and an hour weight training. Switching up your activities and order per day will keep it from getting boring. Hope this helps!
Sounds like you've got a good thing going there. I would suggest you add 5 minutes a day to your treadmill workout until you reach a full hour on the treadmill. This will give you some great calorie-burning....
Good Luck
yes.
