I have recently began working out again and while I think I have the cardio aspect of my fitness plan down, I'm struggling to find a suitable strength training plan. I prefer weight machines to free weights, but I wonder if I'm getting enough from my workouts by using machines and I'm never quite sure which machines to use to get an allover body workout, so many of them appear to work the same muscles. I don't really care for free weights because to use them at my gym is a real hassle, I'm allover the gym jumping from this exercise to that exercise, not really knowing which exercises to do or how. And then of course, when you enter the realm of free weights, there tends to be a certain type of individual you encounter that I don't really care to have to deal with. You know the guys that look like they live in the gym, who's egos tend to match the size of their muscles. Then they shoot you those looks as if to say, "You don't belong here, go back to the machines!" Please help.
