Trying to lose weight while building muscle! anything i should take or do pre workout?

Adjust workout sched: Best approach to losing body fat and gaining lean muscle mass is the alternate between a fat burning workout ( maintaining 65% of your maximum heart for your age ) and a dedicated muscle building program. Diet is important as well and should ultimately have a mild restriction with the goal of losing fat over months not days.

If you're only supposed to do 10 reps per set, and only 3 sets for per muscle group for muscle building, it seems like weight lifting workout only lasts about 30 minutes. Is that too quick?
