		<description>The best workout is going to be the one that you know you&#039;ll be willing to keep doing.  Just like most diets, most kinds of exercise can work and do great things for your bodies.  The reasons they fail so often aren&#039;t that they don&#039;t work... it&#039;s that people try them, find that they don&#039;t enjoy them, and start finding excuses to avoid them.

Ideally you&#039;re going to want a mix of strength training and cardio workouts, so think a little bit about what sort of person you are.  Do you enjoy doing things in groups and having people to laugh and chat with after a workout?  Your gym may have group aerobics or spin classes that you would enjoy.  Or, do you prefer to exercise alone so that you can get into a groove and zone out?  Something like cycling or running on a treadmill may suit you better.

For strength workouts I&#039;m not sure exactly what equipment you have available, but most gyms will make someone available to new members to show them how to use the equipment properly and give them a few suggestions on what to try.  Even if your gym doesn&#039;t do that, it&#039;d be worth your while to pay for one session with a personal trainer to set up a program of strength exercises for you and show you the equipment.  Using that stuff wrong can end in very painful injuries, so paying a one time fee to make sure that you&#039;re not going to hurt yourself trying to get into shape is a very worthwhile use of your money.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>
