A good workout regime is to do 3 days wt training, 3 days of cardio and 1 day of rest. So to answer your question, yes, you can do cardio on 3 of the 4 rest days.

If fat loss is your goal, research shows time and again that a combination of resistance training along with cardio yields best results in the 'battle of the bulge'.
