You're trying to get lean. So where's the cardio!? No mention of it.

Doubt you can find one for that price range.

Either go to a gym, your local park, or buy the makers who make the "perfect push up." I just saw recently a commercial where they have this gadget called the "perfect pull up."

If you're doing it right, 15-20 minutes is all you'll need and/or be able to do.

Anything that can lower your body fat will help you trim your waist and show your abs better.

Definitely squats and deadlifts.

Good luck.

Rest and get more antioxidants in your diet. And, of course protein.

If you want to strengthen the core, then do pilates and yoga.

I've seen many guys who bench and squat the world. But, when they get into the yoga or pilates studio. It's a completely different story.

Yoga and pilates works your stabilizing muscles in your core that other workouts don't.

Good luck.

Love the questions, especially the one on .

If you're serious about wanting to increase the stamina, then quit smoking. Period.
