    I've been working out since January, not with much regularity but with enough to tell the difference in certain ways. Cardio is better, don't get winded very much at the gym anymore, and I'm running between 5 1/2 - 6 miles now when I was just running 3 1/4 miles about 6 weeks ago. That's more related to just running more AND working out harder lately.

    Anyhow, I had some routines I was doing from Men's Health - the Belly Off routine, but I've stopped doing that since a coworker put together a really good 4 day a week plan for me. I've only just started it but it's grouped by muscle groups and has much more lifting that I was doing. I've been sore since starting it.

    I typically do the following per gym session:

    5 - 10 min. Elliptical warmup
    Dynamic stretches and core exercises (before or after weights)
    Weight routine (usually 4-5 different lifts, 4 sets a piece, 10-12 reps each)
    5 minute elliptical cooldown
