Out of shape...

Over the course of the past year and a half I have went from 135lbs to 175lbs. Now I'm not so much concerned with what I look like (because I don't look obese anyhow) however I am concerned with my health. I've never really exercised much throughout my life however I've always stayed pretty healthy by staying very active. However this past year and a half I haven't been very active at all. What would be a good start to getting back into shape? A good beginning routine that I could build on if you will.. Thanks for all replies.

I have found taking mushrooms and running through the forest long distances has helped me lose weight and stay in good shape.

I would say start hitting the pool 3-4 times a week or more - that is if you can swim. It's the best excercie you can do in my opinion.

Any specific daily routine involving just pushups + situps and maybe a bit of running I could start off with just to get myself motivated? I'd like to start tomorrow.
edit: I'm thinking about doing sets of each (pushups + situps) in the morning and after I've aten my last meal for the day. What I'm really looking for is how many sets of each should I start off with?

Start by walking, then jogging, then interval running.
Look into HIIT.

As for pushups and situps, I have no clue what you max out at. I do 1,000 ab exercises and 200 pushups a day on average. Start off in sets of 3, at whatever you max out on each set.
It's fine to do a little less on the less set.

Alright thanks for the link and sets of 3 sounds good. I've got to get my shit in order before mid summer.

Well I found this post in the pub from a while back and have decided to see if I can accomplish it. Tonight marks day 1 of the first week. I did 4 sets of 20 pushups, 3 sets of 35 situps, 100 body squats, and I went for about a 2 mile (if not more) walk. I'm fucking beat but I feel very refreshed and my mind feels nice and clear. Going to have a few beers (maybe a few less than usual ) and relax for the rest of the evening. Usually I eat after I have a couple beers but I'm going to cut that out starting tonight.

Good work man. Getting in shape was the best thing I've ever decided to do.

Thanks bro. Tomorrow is another day, going to keep at it, and hopefully within the next few months get myself back into shape.

Tonight I did a total of 80 pushups, 110 situps, 150 body squats, and about 2 miles of walking. (jogged up hill on my way home for about a 1/4 mile, probably a little less, stopping here and there for a minute) My legs are fucking beat. My arms and stomach hurt a bit but not as bad as my legs. A couple more days - a week and I figure the pain won't be so bad. It's just that initial shell-shock.
