Workout Advice For Beginners

When you start working out, whether its at the gym or at home, it is very important to start off on the right track. I have been working out since I was 16, and over the years I learned a some important things that helped me reach my fitness goals.

Stay Committed

Working out is great for you, but you have to stay committed. You can't just go to the gym one day and take the next few days off because you wont see the results that you want. Commit to working out consistently throughout the week, and then you will see excellent results.

When I started working out, I didn't workout consistently and I never saw great results. It wasn't until I did the P90X program that I saw great results, and to this day my weekly routines are structured on what I learned from that program.

Eat Healthy

Just exercising isn't enough.. you have to a healthy diet as well to see great results. You can't just workout and then spend the rest of the day eating unhealthy foods. Eating a clean diet is the key to getting those great results that you want.

Figuring out what you can eat isn't difficult either. There are apps like myfitnesspal that can help you figure out what you can eat depending on what your fitness goals are. I used to weigh my food on a food scale and count calories, but now I'm able to eat sensibly and know how much food is enough for me.

Ask For Advice Or Do Research

One of best thing that you can do for yourself if you go to a gym is to ask a trainer for advice. Personal trainers can offer some great advice and show you things like new exercises, routines, or how to perform exercises with proper form.

I personally don't go to a gym since I workout at home with calisthenics, so I do my own research online. I do my research by using youtube and I found it really helpful since certain fitness youtubers like Brendan Meyers offer the same advice that trainers from the gym offer. I learned many this like new variations of pushups and pullups, effective cardio routines, as well as ab routines just by watching youtube videos.

I really hope that this post helps out anyone who wants to start working out!

How about some workout advice for old guys who haven't exercised since before you were born? I've realized I can't go on just sitting in a chair all the time and expect to be able to function.
