Small background, I've been sedentary for maybe 3-4 years now. On top of that a pack a day smoker.I'm 5,10 - 5,11 probably 180-190lbs I've normally been in good shape before this time and I've always maintained a normal diet. I've tossed smoking finally and want to get back in shape. I'm just curious to "how hard" I should be going because I don't want to overwork myself. My 3 main workouts are running, free weights and p90x (love that stuff). I want to get in shape as fast as I can without stressing my body too much. I don't know if there is a cut and dry answer, but I want to do as much as possible without it becoming dangerous. Thanks for any help.

Already failed

Fitness isnt a "fast as i can thing" its more of a lifestyle, accept that it wont be quick and you'll be able to get where you want.
Or do steriods.

I mean "fast as I can" as in, how much work can I put in without causing damage considering how bad my cardio is currently.

All I'm looking to achieve is a great body. I already make mostly healthy life style choices in my diet and other activities besides my chair bound work.
To the people saying "read the sticky" Nothing I asked was inside in the sticky.
>Get a sharp haircut (buzzcut if you don't know what suits you) and start grooming properly
>Eat clean at 500 cals below TDEE
>Do Reg Park's Beginner routine
>Do Couch to 5K
>Take up Yoga & Meditation to lower Cortisol
>Do No Fap (on 7 day cycles is fine)
>Stop Gaming especially MMOs
>Do a course at the local community college (it doesn't matter what course, anything you're interested in, it's to resocialise you)
This helped me go from basement dweller to Chad mode over the last 2 years.

>falling for the nofap meme
it helps to get away from the addiction, but as soon as you have a healthy lifestyle you'll barely have enough tiime to fap even once a day.
