    Let see, I would say weight training since that tends to build more muscle. Cardio is good too though.

    If you add a good diet of 5 small meals a day, you got it made.

    Lift well! But don't forget to put it down afterwards.

    I understand it can temporarily but it will not have the same effect as resistance training does on the body.
