I just got into fitness 3 weeks ago.
Fitbit seems interesting.
There is a ton of info on http://reddit.com/r/fitness
Also http://stronglifts.com
Tons of youtube videos on fitness, for example by pendlay
Myfitnesspal is very useful also for free.
I have already lost 3 lbs and am actually eating more than when I was a couch potato. I am also trying to apply discipline I am learning for fitness in my work and home life also. Love it.
