In order to gain muscle mass, you should do more weight lifting and less cardio. However, don't give up cardio altogether. Instead, cut your treadmill (or whatever) time down to 10 - 15 minutes, and do it prior to lifting. This way, your heart gets its workout. You could also get some whey protein and take it twice a day. I used it and was very happy with the results.
Good luck and work hard!
