Exercise routines?

thanks guys ...lots of good points and ideas

I am not really doing this to lose weight because I have actually been underweight before in my life ......but its more to tune up and have for energy and walk farther and last longer at laborious tasks without getting winded. I am actually hoping I don't lose weight.

After reading some of the replies I am making a checklist format and getting started this morning.

We tune up our cars for optimal performance ....well, why not tune up ourselves and get some torque behind the wrenches. :cheers: might work in some martial arts later.
