Welcome to the board man, good job wanting to take control of your life. If there is ever anything you have a question about feel free to ask. You stumbled upon a very good board. Again welcome and enjoy.
WELCOME BRO.GREAT SITE HERE FILLED WITH KNOWLEDGEABLE MEMBERS...A GOOD START WOULD BE TO LIST YOUR STATS,GOALS AND TRAINING EXPERIENCE
ok like I said a newb; what do you mean by stats? I want to drop like 25 lbs and get cut up a bit. The only real training experience i have is the bigger, faster, stronger program that i did for my high school football team. that was like 14 years ago.
stats: age, height, weight, approximate bodyfat%, training experience, etc,etc...
Sounds like you might want to take advantage of morning cardio. Maybe even train in the morning because the body is most catabolic which results in the best time to burn fat. Or break it up. Take advantage of the fat burning metabolism in the morning with a good cardio. Then weight train later. Of coarse, you have to implement a training regimen which will accommodate your schedule. Commitment! That's what it takes. If you don't put all you have into it, you'll see it in your results...err, more like you won't see results. It's a way of life. Sometimes a complete lifestyle transformation is needed to reach your goals. Dedication! EAT HARD, TRAIN HARD, SLEEP HARD. <---that's what it's all about. You get those things correct, and you'll be happy. You found a great place with some very knowledgeable and friendly folks. Look around, browse the forums, read alot, and ask questions. Best of luck to you!

Thanks bro for the advise. Well as for stats I am 32 this month, I am 5'10" and right at 200 lbs. I dont know what my body fat % is. Like i said earlier the only real training i have had was in highschool so i am completely new to all of this. Drive I have, Commitment I have; I am going to do all I can to meet the goals that i have set for myself. These are my starter goals as I know that once I meet them my goals will change. I am not exactly a fat slob but as i have got older I have noticed that my body just isnt as it once was. Although i have not had any real training in a gym I can say however grew up on a farm and literally shoveled pig sh!t out of a 35' Tractor trailer 4 times a week. Each truck would usually be around 2 tons of manure. If that wont give you a core strength I dont know what will.....lol. Thanks for all of your advise and encouragement. I look forward to getting to know all of you and believe me I will come with questions.
Welcome. Congratulations. It really is a total life transformation. Change your body Change your mind Change your life. You can do it.
This site will help.
alright bro...give me a clue about your day...wake up time? go to work time? available training time? type job (office, laborer...ect) do you have work breaks? can you feed every 3 hrs, even if small amounts (small is key to beginning and nutrition will be 50% of the battle if not more)....i was probobly the same as you when i started...grew up on a horse ranch, core strength there, just dormant...38inch waist, 5'8 and 200lbs of shyt....i've done pretty good for myself in 4 years!!! you'll see fast ()what i concidered fast) improvements and use that to motivate you to move forward...believe me
