Back in the day I did almost every exercise regiment there was. What worked best of for me was strength training one day (weights or weight machines) and running the next. The combination of cardio and strength training gave me great results and those came at a rapid pace. 3 days a week of weights for about an hour and a half. I never tried to set world records, I worked up to 5 sets of 10 at 180 lbs bench press and 3 sets of ten on most everything else between 100 and 135 lbs. Running was about 6 miles- I would run three one way let my dog swim in the Mississippi River and run three back. It took me about three months to build up to where I was comfortable with this and I could run at 12:00 noon in Louisiana heat- it took a whole bottle of Gatorade before and after though.
Anyway start slow and eat right, develop a schedule- you can have all the exercise equipment in the world and it does nothing for you if you do not make yourself stick to it. The combinaton of cardio and weights will transform you in short order.
