I've been doing half and half. First half of my workout is strength training, and the second half is cardio intervals. Also, a majority of my strength training is endurance reps (high reps with slightly lower weight). I've lost 60lbs in five months.

Also, there's not much difference in burning calories and weight loss in cardio v. weight training. That has more to do with diet than anything. So, if you're wanting to shed pounds, then adjusting your diet and getting protein may need to be part of "phase 1".
