I eat approximately 900 - 1200 calories a day, am 163.5cm tall and weigh 55kg, but am hoping to lose maybe another 3 or so kilos? Basically, I just want to become stronger and slightly more muscly, whilst also looking leaner.
Last night, I quickly wrote out an exercise routine for me to follow today at the gym, but I'm not too sure about its effectiveness. Here is what I have so far:
Warm-up: 15 minute walk to the gym
3 x 10 bench press (5kg, I’m just starting out so it’s not much atm)
3 x 10 bicep curls (5kg weights)
3 x 10 two-armed triceps dumbbell extensions (7kg weight)
5 x 10 squats (10kg, I’m thinking of increasing the weight next time)
3 x 10 leg press (60kg)
3 x 10 leg extensions
5 x 10 verticle leg lifts
Elliptical trainer: 10 minutes
Rowing machine: 10 minutes/2km
Bike: 10 minutes
Cool-down: 15 minute walk home
At home, I do a quick (mostly just bodyweight) workout before bed at least 3 or 4 nights a week:
1 minute plank
100 norml crunches
50 side crunches (each side)
1 minute plank
20 squats
30 lunges (each leg)
40 calf raises (hold for 5 seconds each)
50 second wall squat
40 lying leg lifts
30 sumo squats
20 squats
The gym routine took sometime between 1 hour and 1 hour 45 minutes to complete. I sill felt quite energized after it, so I wasn't exactly sarisfied. I go to the gym 1 - 2 times a week, along with touch football once a week, school oztag and about 3 PE lessons per week. Any tips on how I can improve my gym routine to help achieve my goals quicker?

Thanks everyone, this has really given me some good insight!0
