Better results from weights or cardio?

Hey everyone!

Because I work two jobs I don't have much time to exercise. I can squeeze in 3 days a week, but I won't have time to do both cardio and weight training. I also am limited because I suffer from several injuries, which makes cardio hard.

Has anyone gotten better results regarding weight loss from weight lifting rather than cardio? I plan to do biceps curls, triceps curls, chest flys, sit ups, side leg lifts, rear leg lifts and squats. I'll be using 10 lb weights.

    If you can only do one, lift heavy.

    or do cardio :-p

    remember the MFP mantra ...

    Diet for weight loss
    Exercise for fitness

    So as your goal is for weight loss- either will do - just eat the right amount of the right stuff.
