Complete Beginners Workout Guide To Gym

When you're first starting out, it's best to stick with basic exercises that work for multiple muscle groups at once. This way, you'll be able to see results faster and build a strong foundation for more advanced workouts down the road.

Here are a few examples:

1. Squats

These work your glutes, hamstrings, and quads, and are a great way to start your workout.

To do a squat:

• Stand with your feet hip-width apart
• Slowly bend your knees until your thighs are parallel to the ground.
• Be sure to keep your back straight and look straight ahead as you lower yourself.
• Press back up to the starting position and repeat.

2. Lunges

Another great multi-muscle exercise, lunges work your glutes, hamstrings, and quads as well as your core muscles.

To do a lunge:

• Stand with one foot in front of the other.
• Slowly lower yourself down until both knees are bent at about 90 degrees.
• Be sure to keep your back straight - don't let it dip down as you lunge.
• Press back up to the starting position and repeat.

3. Push-ups

These are classic upper body exercises that work your chest, triceps, and shoulders.

• Start in a plank position with your hands shoulder-width apart, then lower yourself down until your chest touches the floor (or as close as you can get).
• Press back up to the starting position and repeat.
• If you find push-ups too difficult, try doing them against a wall or using an incline like a bench or staircase.
• Once you've got the hang of these basic exercises, you can start adding in some more challenging ones.
• But always make sure that you're using the proper form - otherwise, you could end up hurting yourself instead of getting fit!

4. Crunches

Crunches are a great way to work your abs.

To do a crunch:

• Lie down on your back with your knees bent and feet flat on the floor.
• Place your hands behind your head, then lift your shoulders off the ground and towards your knees.
• Be sure to keep your lower back pressed against the floor.
• Slowly lower back down and repeat.

5. Tricep dips

These exercises work your triceps - the muscles on the back of your upper arms.

To do a tricep dip:

• Start by sitting on the edge of a bench with your hands shoulder-width apart.
• Slide your butt off the bench and lower yourself down until your upper arms are parallel to the ground.
• Be sure to keep your elbows close to your body as you dip.
• Press back up to the starting position and repeat.

6. Bicep Curls

Bicep curls are a great way to work your biceps - the muscles on the front of your upper arms.

To do a bicep curl:

• Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and a weight in each hand, palms facing forward.
• Slowly lift the weights towards your shoulders, keeping your elbows close to your sides.
• Pause for a moment at the top, then slowly lower the weights back down.
• Repeat.

7. Shoulder Presses

Shoulder presses are a great way to work your shoulders, chest, and triceps.

To do a shoulder press:

• Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and a weight in each hand, palms facing forward.
• Lift the weights up so that your arms are parallel to the ground, then press them overhead.
• Pause for a moment at the top, then lower the weights back down.
• Repeat.
