Beginner Workout Instructions

Warm-Up: 5-10 minutes

Cardio/Cool Down: 20-30 minutes

Treadmill, Bike, Stairmaster, etc.

Week 1

Day 1
Your goal is to do 1 set of 15 repetitions on each exercise.
(All machines and exercises are different, so when choosing your starting weights guess light)

Make sure to write your weights & reps in the 1st column, weight x reps, example: 20 x 15
If you don’t get 15 reps on every exercise it’s OK, just do as many as you can and write it down.

Day 2 – 4
Look over the previous workout and slightly raise the weights on any exercises you easily made it to 15, keep all other weights the same.

Repeat this workout 1 to 3 times with at least 1 day of rest in between.

Weeks 2 – 6

Generally the same format as week 1 with different exercises and more sets (as noted on each workout).

Week 7

If you think you’re ready start the Intermediate Workouts

If not make your own Custom Beginner Workouts until you are.
