Hey Tyler... i work out pretty hard. You wanna build some muscle, time to hit the weights and eat the protein... simple as that really. If you are inexperienced, then it is best to go with light weights and learn the proper form. I would probably take a month or so just doing that. Stick mainly to the free weights, the machines are pretty much a waste of time (besides ones for legs IMO). For free weights you need your core for stabilization. I would learn how to the big three correctly: squats, dead lifts and bench press. I would read as much as can on it.

Bottom line is start light, focus on the muscle you are working and eat right. You should see some pretty quick initial gains.

use exercises that use only your body weight too.... pull ups (my fav), push ups, dips and squats with no added weight is a great place to start

I did a kettle ball session to restart my development.

Pig pen helped me very much in my plan.

I also do Body Pump which is very structured group exercise. You will need help with free weights to get perfect form.

A number of posters here do Paleo diet.
