I know some top trainers who use weights as the primary mode of fat loss. You need to update your information it's out of date
lolol

calories burnt are directly proportional to heart rate, fact
muscle does burn more calories at rest but you have to build the muscle first.
steady state cardio burns more calories than HIIT, fact, though you do get a raised EPOC from HIIT this of course one of the points of it.

are you talking about Supersetting weights with HIIT at the same time thereby severly reducing the effects of both?
