Sample Exercise Routines for men & women

Harvie_Dent

Hey!

I was wondering if there is anyone that can give me some tips on exercises for men and women. My girlfriend and I are looking to work out together, and I would like to incorporate some light-weight exercise for my lady. She hasn't done any type of lifting before, but I'm comfortable with teaching her the proper techniques so she can.

So does anyone have any sample work outs we can go off of? We'll be sharing the workout, but I'll modify it so it'll be challenging for my goals.

(her goals are to lose weight and get toned)

Alot of the women on here follow Stronglifts, Starting Strength, or New Rules of Lifting. I understand these programs are useful for men as well.
