you need the drink when you have totally finished your workout to help with recovery see as you will be incorperating some muscle groups when performing cardio then you have not stopped training so you have your Drink after your cardio..
as for being knackered and doing a half assed attempt if you want to lose weight then you should have the focus and determination to do the cardio.....

Also, for example, if im having a jog on a tuesday morning, im not hitting the weights until wednesday evening, giving me more than a whole day between them, which in my opinion is enough time to recover. |
if you are training Mon\Wed\Fri then you recover when you are resting and that is when you grow but if on your rest days you do cardio at such a pace that you are shattered then you are not resting therfore their is a chance you could go into overtraining i am not saying it is a certainty i am saying it is a possability and should be mentioned.
