Default Ok to run after working out?

I like to do a little cardio 4 days a week. I run for maybe 15-20 mins just to stay cut and I'm just wondering if its better to run after you workout or before. I always felt it was better to run after that way I have more strength in the gym, but I am just curious.

If it's after a workout, then a lower intensity form of cardio would be more appropriate.

A " Jog " would be better than a " Run " post workout.

With pre workout, avoid going " Running " aswell.
If you were to go running before a workout, you would find yourself with limited strength and stamina for the actual workout.

A 5-10minute low intensity form of cardio as a means of warming up would be far better to perform before a workout.
