to some extent i think that is true, but you will probably only lose a little... you have to be over like 80% of your heart rate for that to happen, which is approx. 220 - your age...

but if you lift hard and then do something like HIIT you arent going to lose all your gains, you will probably only lose a little, but by doing the hard cardio you will increase your bodies ability to carry oxygen to the blood cells, which will have a greater effect with everything in your life... trust me, it is a better trade off for you
