Hi I'm looking to start lifting. I enjoy cardio but now that I'm starting to lose weight I wanna keep as much muscle as possible. I am male, 5'7, 360 pounds. I appreciate any recommendations.

Stronglifts is a great beginner's program. You should be able to download an app on your phone, and there's lots of info on the internet about it.
Good luck!!1 -
What type of equipment do you have access to?
Don't try to run a small deficit trying to maintain muscle. With your stats you don't have to worry much about that and fatloss should be you main goal.0 -
Besides good advice above, there's a thread here you can check out where various MFP-ers have collected strength programs they found helpful, and there's discussion of the programs:
