What do you think of my first workout program?

ZAKARIYA321

I am pretty excited to start the gym. So i was browsing for some programs and i found this routine
on r/fitness looks pretty basic and introductory which is what i need for now. My Question is; Can this routine
produce results or are there better more challenging/beginner programs?. How long should i stick to this routine minimum?

Have you ever lifted before? If not, welcome to the brotherhood/sisterhood of iron! There are six basic types of motion a well-rounded lifting routine hits, and this does cover all of them:

Horizontal push - bench press
Horizontal pull - BB row
Vertical push - overhead press
Vertical pull - Chinups
Hip hinge - deadlifts
Leg extension - squats

I'm not a fan of doing sets of 5 reps for people brand new to lifting, as the chance of injury increases dramatically when lifting heavy if you do not already have a well-built foundation of lifting experience in your background with a focus on proper form and technique. Thus, I would look at one of the programs listed in this thread here on MFP:

There are a variety of programs to select from, including a large number intended for people brand new to the lifting community. Whether you have access to a fully equipped gym, just some dumbbells in your home, or only your own bodyweight, there's a program for you, with full instructions of which lifts to do on which days, how many sets and reps, everything. Yes, there are a couple 5x5 programs listed under "beginner" but I would wait on those until you have been lifting for at least six months, to get you practice doing lifts safely before you try to do those same lifts heavy.

The exercises best for you depend on your own body and your own preferences.

If you are new to the gym, I recommend going on YouTube and trying some workout routines that fitness athletes post.
