Do the strength training on the 3 day split with a little cardio directly afterwords, and more intense cardio on the days in between.

Okay, here's what I meant:
-Go ahead and do the strength training on Tuesday,Friday, and Sunday. After each strength training session, do some mild cardio for 15-30 minutes(this is just for that little extra calorie burn.)
-On Wednesday and Saturday, just do cardio for a longer and more intense period of time. (maybe 30-45 minutes)
A "split" refers to how you break up your workout days in relation to the muscle groups worked. If you work two muscle groups a day, it will take three training days to make sure all muscle groups have been worked that week. So that would be a 3-day, full body split.
