I've recently just started working out, so I'd like to post my current workout and see what you guys think (keep in mind this is just the beginning stage)

I do this every other day:

- 25 slow crunches
- 15 slow crunches to left side
- 15 slow crunches to right side
- 2 sets of 12 reps of 20lb dumbell curl in each arm
- 12 reps of 20lb dumbell lift in each arm (don't know what it's called, but I just hold the weight up leveled with my head and lift my arm up)
- 20 inclined pushups (my hands are on a bench, feet on ground)
- 12 reps of "fly" exercise with 20lb dumbells, lying on back on bench
- 12 reps of "bench press" exercise with 20lb dumbells in each hand, where you just simulate a bench press, except with dumbells

This takes about 15 minutes.

On my off days I will just do ab exercises.

And finally, I am on my high school track team, so that helps with cardio-vascular and lower body. The group I'm in on my track team is the sprinting group, so about 85% of the running I do is short-distance, which is good because I've heard it's better for building muscle. I have practice 5 days a week and it's usually about an hour and a half.

So what do you guys think? Any tips you can give me on other exercises I may want to try, or anything else?

No one can answer your question unless you say what your goals are. Build muscles, loose weight, what?

Oh, sorry about that. My goal is to ultimately have a more toned body. I'm not looking to have huge muscles, I just want decent-sized ones that are definitely noticeable, and give me the look of a toned, physically fit guy.

Right now I'm about average-sized. I'm 5'11", 155lbs, and I'm fairly athletic (though out of shape right now).

All that running on the track team will do doubt get you lean or keep you lean. So now you have to worry about building muscle.

5'-11" @ 155 is skinny. Hell I'm 3-4" taller than you and weight 45 more lbs and I'll still not a big fella.

In general you are going to want to lower your reps and up the weight on your lifting, and make sure you eat alot.
