That's good if you're not an athlete, but otherwise you've got to get your heart rate up.

If you're goal is to just lean out and shed fat than it's more than possible to do that just through resistance training and proper dieting. However, if you are involved in any sort of athletics I would suggest doing at least some cardio work.

when cutting, there's no question to add cardio in the gym.

Perhaps adding 10 minutes of HIIT would be fine
