New to lifting

zsaoosh

I am going to go see my body fat % in the bod pod next week but want to know a lifting routine I should start out in. I have 45 minutes to a hour 3 times a week I scheduled out. I want to lift my butt and get my back and arms in shape. I am 136 lbs and 5'6.5''. How long do you think it would take to see changes and what are the best machines to use in those areas? THANKS BUNCHES! :bigsmile:

Squats will do everything you want to your legs and butt. Deadlifts for your back... and just about everything works your arms, so I wouldn't worry about that. I do CrossFit and that seems to do it all. Good luck to you!
