Rep Power: 53549 | Re: HIIT after weights it's perfectly fine. one reason TO do it post workout is that your glycogen stores are already depleted and you'd be burning more fat for energy. Just dont do it on leg day, you dont want a mouthful of treadmill.

There's other factors that may pay a role such as how long you are on the weights, how much sleep you get daily, and what your diet looks like.
