Thanks to ButterTheBean, OTR and others, I am finally starting 2 new exercise plans today.

2. New rules to lifting

Wish me luck! It is my first step into a structured program for reaching goal. I already eat clean and drink my fluids, so just need to add this to take one more step towards a healthy way of living. I can't wait until being able to run a 5 k and eventually, a marathon.

Sounds great. I don't do the luck thing. I think you make your own luck. You are going to do great!!

What are the "new rules to lifting"?

I'm doing the About.com 3 weeks to a 30-minute running...

I'm going at the pace I can, (which I know it'll be more than 3 weeks for me) and it's a walk/jog/run

(not in that order all the time). But it's fun.

You can do it.

New rules of lifting is a book about weight lifting. It has a very specific workout program....very detailed and good for novice weight lifters. There is also The New Rules Of Lifting For Women. My wife has that one and loves it. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to start weightlifting but is not sure what to do.
