Hey, I'm new.

So I was referred here by my friend Crescent. Anyway, I'm a 26 year old guy who is badly out of shape.
I'm 6'1" and 255lbs. I'm a heavy smoker and drinker, which I know i have to work on.

Anyway, I've made the decision to get into shape. Monday after work, my friend and I will be enrolling at a local gym. I've already made some *small* changes to get me started:
-drink mad water. all the time. no more soda or gatorade.
-no more chips and junk food. lots of fruits and vegetables.
-i've been grilling a lot of chicken. usually seasoning it with lemon pepper.

So basically, I'm looking for any advice that a complete n00b needs.
I'm extremely out of shape, and I don't want to have a heart attack or worse. I need to get better. I'm 26. I should be in the best shape of my life right now.

thanks.

-Mike K

personally i would ease myself into a routine.concentrate on technique,and form while exercising.the rest will follow,if you stick at it.

Exercise: you don't have time not to.
