I do not excercise and haven't for a really long time, I don't eat that healthy cause I live on Ramen Noodles and basically anything really cheap. I sit in an office all day. I'm 5'7 and about 150 lbs. Anytime I try excercising (Sit-ups, push ups, cardio) I wake up the next day with so much pain in my muscles that I can barely walk and just stop excercising all together. I have really poor joints and cannot run without hurting my ankles. I barely have the energy to sit at work all day. My muscles will hurt really bad from barely doing anything, lots of times from things I don't remember doing. Is there a way to avoid hurting myself this so I can become more active? I'm only 23 years old!

A great way to start up if the traditional workouts are a bit of a pain at first, is to get in the water. You can simulate most any resistance exercise in the water- it's even better if you use "aqua gloves" for added resistance. You can do several cardiovascular exercises in the water as well, like jumping jacks, jogging, etc. and it is much easier on the joints. Lots of health clubs/gyms offer water classes now if you are interested. You can probably find books or websites with descriptions and/or pictures to get an idea of useful exercises.
