I am very much still at the beginning of my health and fitness journey. While I have been going to the gym for the past few months and lost a lot of weight, so far I only used machines. I want to start incorporating free weights as I focus more on building muscle but I don’t know where to start.
Free weights seem very daunting to me, I have heard and read so many horror stories about injuries when using improper form while using free weights that I don’t really know where to start and then how to improve.
Here’s some videos I do, these can all be done with freeweights / dumbbells. Best to start out very light, then work your way up, and eventually get multiple sets so you have different weights you can quickly switch to.
As far as a weekly routine, I do full body, so chest, arms, lower, cardio/core, twice a week, but you can do three times, if you wanna get fit fast. Just make sure you have 48 hours of rest in between.
