I'm new and need help!!

karecast01

I need help motivating myself into getting into a workout routine. It is my first time getting a gym membership, and it's really hard for me to go and actually work out when I feel like I don't know what I'm doing. I honestly feel ashamed sometimes and that's why I'm asking for help. I am trying to lose some weight but not a lot, my main goal is to tone myself out. I'm more looking for a flatter stomach, I want to gain upper body strength, and I'm looking into getting bigger thighs, hips, and glutes. But especially my stomach getting smaller and my glutes getting bigger. So I am here asking for help. If people can give me some workout ideas or exercises I can do to help me with that so i can make a routine out of them, Or if there is anyone that is working on the same thing that I am, if you would share your routines with me I would be more than entirely grateful because I have no idea where to start and I'm tired of looking up routines and having to pay for all of them when they don't help me. So PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE if anyone could help me out!!!!!!

I have found over the years, it’s best to work all the body then to try and hit one area, u need to warm ur body, a 5 min walk. Then hit cardio for short time zone, 1 min run to 30 sec walk, 3/5 times... all over body tone. Work from bottom to top. The a cool down / stretch.. min of 3 times a week. If u YouTube all body work outs u will find more then enough to enjoy!!!! :-))

Good for you getting started. You are not alone.

The most important thing is to learn proper technique. That’s the best way to get results and avoid injury. I’d encourage you to meet with a personal trainer at you gym. Don’t be scared. They want to help you. Share your goals and they will help you to develop a program that works for you. They will also help make sure you learn proper technique.

Don’t feel like you have to do everything. Figure out what works for you. Then go slow. Take your time building up.

Good luck.
