Planet Fitness Schedule

I went to one of those meetings with the personal trainer where she asks what your goals are etc and makes you up a schedule.
Before I got the schedule (took about a week to make) I was just doing the elliptical for 40 mins and 5-10 mins of weight lifting. I would leave every day sweaty but not very sore. Now my schedule has a lot more weight lifting and focuses on specific areas each day (have days 1-5) but only have cardio 3/5 days. I’m most definitely sore but not as sweaty as before.
Should I just stick to the plan or add more cardio? Idk why but in my mind it seems the more sweat/ the more calories burned. Is this not true?

Sweat is not an indication of anything other than your body trying to stay cool.5

I am not a sweat-er. I just don't sweat a lot. But my Apple Watch has my heart rate at 125-145 during my workouts (I know that's not an exact reading but I also know my heart rate is elevated during my workouts) so I know I'm working hard0
