Since you're already getting good advice on the exercise front, I'll take care of the rest of your time.
Don't you dare short change on your sleep, and just as importantly...
Make sure your fridge is filled with an arsenal of worthy food. We're talking fruit and veg. Fresh dark greens (collard, swiss chard or kale), and berries.... blueberries are best. Fresh is ideal, but frozen runs a close second.
Protein shakes will help your recovery - slam it down immediately after your workout while the blood is flowing... this is the best time to take it.
Also make sure you are eating enough before (at least an hour before, though) your sessions to give you energy. Though I should probably get over this crutch, I find pounding back a coffee helps me attack my workout a bit more... espresso if I'm feeling cuh-razy!
