Can anyone recommend a book about working out? As in about exercises and such.

Starting Strength is a good resource for learning proper weightlifting form and routines. http://www.amazon.com/Starting-Strength-2nd-Mark-Rippetoe/dp...

There is also a wiki covering some of the material with videos: http://startingstrength.wikia.com/wiki/Starting_Strength_Wik...
