you need to either cut(lose fast) or bulk(gain muscle) you can not do both. so if you want to cut decrease your cals and do low intensity cardio after weight session. if you want bulk increase cals and do not perfrom cardio after weight session.

if he was new to training you can see some gains early on... but the bigger part is that he probably didnt build too much muscle, it was more that he became more defined as he lost weight. without all the fat covering your mucles they will appear bigger

I thought cardio, even a small amount, was still important, even when bulking, or do you mean just not straight after weight training?

yes I mean after training, like 30-60 minutes. a 5 minute walk or bike ride is fine for warm ups.
