The glycogen thing that I told you is accurate, which is why you want to lift first, do cardio second.
Most places that say "it doesn't matter" are using shorthand for "the glycogen effect is real, but for the majority of casual enthusiasts its impact will pale in comparison to other, less subtle effects like 'not showing up' or 'self-limiting' - so it's more important to do whichever one you're more serious about first." Personally, I always lift first, but I can see their point.

Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but the effect you're referring to is less important for lower-weight "circuit"-style training that most women employ (as it is primarily based on slower/less efficient ATP replenishing) and/or can be somewhat offset with more time in between sets, right? Although since navane is going to the "next level" these may well be completely obviated.
