    I would consider crunches a strength training exercise. As far as order goes....I lift first and then do HIIT or swim (cardio). Reason being....that's just my preference. Do whatever you want to first.

    Work you lower body, too, squats and lunges are a great way to get those large muscle groups working to burn the fat and tighten/lift your butt - and who doesn't want that?
