What is your diet on a typical day?
Depending on what time of day I wake up, I typically eat 5 – 6 times a day.

Here is one example: 
6 AM: 5 egg whites and veggies with 1/3 cup of oatmeal or 1/2 cup fat free cottage cheese with cinnamon and Splenda

 9 AM: 3 hard boiled eggs, yolks replaced with canned tuna or chicken (mixed with mustard, celery and seasoning) and 11 natural almonds or a 1/2 cup pumpkin seeds (in shells) 

12 PM: Five ounces of stir-fried chicken with half a cup of brown rice and steamed veggies 

3 PM: 5 oz grilled chicken, a 4 oz sweet potato and 1 cup steamed green beans

 6 PM: Typically after a workout, I pack a small apple and 2 chicken or turkey meatloaf muffins 

9 PM: 5 egg whites and veggies or 1/2 cup fat free cottage cheese mixed with a chocolate flavored Superfood.
What type of training do you typically do?
Right now I am doing a lot of circuit training. I either work a few muscle groups together and incorporate active rests (ex. Chest & shoulders with jump rope, back & arms with mountain climbers, legs with crunches) or I alternate days of upper body and lower body workouts.
Do you prefer weight training over cardio?
For optimal results, I believe in a combination of both. However, weight training, in my opinion, is really the fountain of youth. Adding just 5 pounds of muscle makes you more metabolic (meaning, you burn more calories as rest). With 5 pounds of additional muscle you burn 250 more calories a day. Also, the endorphins that are created from exerting yourself by pushing and pulling weight, can really revitalize you. It not only reduces stress but adding muscle to your physique makes you stronger, more nimble and ultimately makes you look better.
