Hi all, my first post and im kinda new to the organised fitness training etc so i was wondering if anyone could help me out with a few pointers.
I'm basically looking to initially lose a few lbs (its not a gut!! buts its not a well toned 6-pack either...) and build up some upper body strenth.
I'v been using treadmill last week for about a half an hour a day during the week at wotk and jogging most other nights. Weights wise iv just been doing a few light weights after running but not pushing myself, benchpress and armcurls etc. Any guidlines for a fitness plan?
Thanks for any help guys
