Weight training routine?


I am incorporating weight training and cardio trying to shed some pounds. My main focus is to lose weight, however I want to add some muscle mass at the same time. What do you suggest when weight training, high reps at low weight, or low reps at heavy weight or is it smart to incorporate both? Please advise, any help is appreciated, thanks!!

Do high reps at medium weights.
