Hi all, I need some help and wasn't sure where to turn to. I am, what I consider, to be in the worst shape I have ever been in my life. I'm not fat, 5'6" and around 135-145lbs, but I have no energy and no endurance.
My goal is to get back down to a good weight for me, ~125lbs, and get my mile run times back down to 630 or so, and be XC race ready next summer(graduating College here in December, and get a real life after), problem is I don't know how. For my workouts I've always had them dictated to me, be it on a team in High School, or in Basic/morning PT in the Army. I've tried to make my own up, but I usually end up over-extending myself/burning out of lack of variety that I actually do myself more harm. The nutrition front is the same, I've never had to prepare a menu to eat, it's always been dictated to me, and my eating habits are pretty destroyed after being in the Army, I eat once a day, if that, and its usually real calorie heavy.
The help I need is a good resource thats not a fad diet/workout, that gives me enough variety and a good set of sequential goals that I can go through, basically need it dictated to me again.
Anyone able to help?
