Hello everyone
I'm new to this forum, I'm 15 years old, 181 lbs, and about 5'9'' and I have been working out for a few years now on and off (on mostly in winter, off in summer). My one rep max in bench is 250 so im not 185 lbs fat, but im not solid muscle either. So now I need some help on a few things. First I want to lose weight, but don't really now what to do. Running from what I've been reading is probably the best thing to do but my endurance levels aren't to good, so my question is do you think that I should just suck it up and run or try to find something else to do? Second, I heard that if you don't run around 30 miles a week you won't see much results (is there truth to that)? Third, what opinions can you give me on my routine (Its pretty basic)to make it better so i can get a "Total Body Workout".

Flat Bench Press-6x10,10,8,6,5,5 reps
Barbell Curls-4x15,12,10,8
