Wait, I'm nearly identical to you lol.
Currently 5'6'' and 120 lbs.
I have yet to really "work out" before, but I have always wanted to start and build up muscle. The closest thing to working out that I've done is play soccer, which I do a lot of.
The large majority of my muscle lies in my legs (soccer obviously) and I have a considerable amount of stamina.
I know I need to work on my upper body, but I never could find the right way to start. Reading through this thread has given me a general idea, but I'm still not entirely sure what I should start with.
Also: I don't have any weights/workout related items in my home, nor do I have any gym memberships. What household items would be good substitutes (because I'm too lazy to buy weights)?
edit: I've been cutting down on the amount of junk food I eat, and I never really eat that much to begin with. I have that mentality of feeling full faster.
