Ok so i have decided that i would like to start working out, but since im starting im not sure where to really start. I can't go to the gym a lot because i live pretty far away from the gym so i was wondering if anyone could tell me what type of workouts at home i could do to work on my stomach and pecs. Also what type of foods i should be eating. Thanks.

Start with push-ups or sit-ups for about 20-30 minutes
Do some running or jogging
Stay on a light diet

Yeah i have a pull up bar, so i have been using that aswell as doing push up, crunches,planks and sit ups. But im not sure how much of each one to do and what type of foods to eat. In the morning i have being trying to eat the nutri grain cereal bars and some fruit at small break. Since there is a pull up bar in school aswell i use them at break but i cant use the weights when there is no one around as there locked up.

Well protiene shakes are a good start, but those alone wont do anything Try drinking one then working ou then maybe anotehr later. Diet is also good lots of water to help replinish your body as well as keeping you healthy

Glute Bridge: Single Leg Glute Bridge Guide
Lay on the floor with your feet flat and knees bent.
Raise one leg off of the ground, pulling the knee to your chest. ...
Execute the movement by driving through the heel, extending your hip upward and raising your glutes off of the ground.

6 down 2 up: sit ups taking 2 seconds to sit up and then 6 seconds to go down and vice versa for 6 down 2 up.

Yes a lot of people experience this, probably doing too much, i tried to go straight in to hard workouts and often got this from overworking myself. Just need to build up your stamina then this should stop
