Hey guys, I'm starting Couch to 5k two days from now, if you guys'd like to join in. Also, it's not healthy to be doing push ups every day. Give that part of your arms a rest for a day or so. Make sure you get around to exercising all of the muscles in your body by the end of the week. A gym membership is great, but it's possible even if you don't have one.
Oh, and WATCH WHAT YOU EAT, too. You can't just keep eating a bunch of junk food and expect to become a macho man in the course of a couple weeks. Eat a ton of protein after your workout (not before, oh god, not before), and try to stay away from things with corn syrup or hydrogenated fats. I cut junk food out of my diet for a month a while back, and it felt absolutely wonderful. Gonna try and do it again soon.
