    Weights rather than cardio?

    It's not really one OR the other - you should already be doing both. Resistance training & cardio each have health benefits. When you say "sculpting" though ..... weights will get you there faster.

    Maintain a healthy calorie deficit.
    Lift - heavy, compound lifts
    Cardio - whatever you enjoy

    What cardio do you do?

    HIIT and weights (heavy) will have the most effect but 4 weeks is a little short to make any real change.

    You can lose weight with or without cardio. You can only avoid looking like crap at the end with resistance training.
