Thanks tbh I'm like yourself I'm fancying getting to the gym more I don't really have any desire to fight at a competitive level anymore just enjoy the training bit of sparring and decent atmosphere.
I usually start with a 2 mile run to warm up before I touch any weights, I'll take a look in to the 5x5 compound routines and I'll take a look at push/pull/legs routines too try mix it up a little.
Any advice on any supplements I should be taking a look at not bought anything like that for years.

Supplements i swear by Bodybuilding Warehouse now, used Myprotein, bulk powders etc. all have there own range but just prefer bodybuilding warehouse.
I personally use 'performance diet whey' and 'performance protein' both taste good and are a good blend.
Other than that start simple, just some fish oils and a good multi vitamin and maybe a zma to start the process and add more as and when they are required.
Keep food simple to, on Sundays I just go to the shop with the missus and buy both our food for the week and then food prep for meals at work, all I do for snacks is either have a quest bar as there high in fibre or some fruit or a shake depending on what best fits my macros.
If i'm prepared I stick to my diet religiously so I just buy all my food sunday, cook loads up and bang it in storage containers in the freezer. Or I cook my dinner in the evening and cook enough for a couple of meals the next day at work.
Typically I just buy these and then I know i'm eating clean.
