Best of luck and success to you, Mage, in your new conqest. The KEY is to stick with it and don't push too hard beyond your limits in the beginning (nothing puts a damper on a fitness routine than the soreness and injuries that can occurr by trying to do too much too soon).

A few guys on the forum are doing the P90X Fitness Program. I hear that's a kick-ass program within itself that gets results fast. As you progress in your gym routines, you may want to consider incorporating the P90X program into your overall routine. Talk to some of the guys on that program - I'm sure they'll be more than happy to give you the info you need!

Seems I ought to be in better shape than I presently am due to the fact that I've been skating at my job for the last 28 years!!

well just completed my first official day of PT with a personal trainer. the routine was as close to 4 sets as possible or ten minutes which ever came first.
crunches did 35 ( ouch it burned) never managed to do so many before even in school.
10 minutes on the new stepper slash elliptical at resistance 1 (wow better than 1 hour fast walking the local mall. slight burn but nice still felt my abs while doing it to.
did some light free weights for the arms and curls with pull lifts or what ever did 3 sets a piece. (burns a bit all over at this point)
did 6 reps on the machines i will hope to concur in 30 days. one worked the upper back and the other was for lat pull downs.

all this took about an hour. not including the 20 mins beforehand that i did on the cycle at 80 watts. so i was ready for bed after my steam room and pool rest periods.
