I personally would do it in between the cardio. It is a trick called "force feeding." The carbs cause an insulin spike that will promote shuttling of nutrients. Now if you then do the cardio right after your body will be in a state of ketosis because the weight lifting should have depleted blood glucose. The combination of the two will cause nutrients to be shuttled to the muscles.

If you google force feeding with protein shakes you can find a lot of info.

I second this information I do this myself, this is probably what is best for you to do, look into it brother.
