I firmly believe resistance training, or rather weight training is a MUST for fat loss. If I had my choice between 30 minutes of cardio or 30 minutes of weight training, I would take weight training all day long! I used to work out every day with lots of cardio and then do a nautilus circuit. I wondered why my weight was the same. I hired a personal trainer who took me off nautilus and put me on free weights. I dropped pounds and inches quickly and my body was sculpted. I still did cardio, but the majority of my loss was from weight lifting.

Good question. Cardiovascular is great for fat loss, but I think you need strength training combined becuase muscle burns more calories than fat, so the more muscle you can build up the more calories you will burn, even while at rest.
