Hey everyone, a friend recomended I come here and ask you guys to help me out so here I am.

I'm a 19 year old male, about 205lbs., 6foot1.5, not the best of shape (i'd say around 24% body fat, but not sure) and i'm getting ready to leave for the Navy. I ship out around January and would like to be in pretty decent shape by then.

I need to build a fair amount of upper body strength and bring in my gut a bit, hah. I've been going to the gym the past month and doing running, ab work every other day, and upper body the opposite days. It's worked pretty well so far seeing as I started out around 220lbs. My legs are in good condition (can handle a mile in around 8.5 minutes).

I go to LA Fitness, so they have most any machine I could ask for, but what I need is a routine that will work the most efficiently.

I have about 2 hours a night to spend at the gym, so length of time isn't really an issue.

Thanks to anyone that can help with a good suggestion on a routine.
