I met with my newly hired PT today for our first session after my fitness assessment. I am currently trying to burn fat (aren't we all:)
Does this program look sufficient for a beginner?
Goblet Squats, holding 30lb dumbbell (Squat rack./bars were taken)
Lunges with 12lb weights
Bench Press, 55lbs
Tricep Pull Down Machine, 27.5lbs
Seated Row, 55lbs
Planks (2/45 seconds)
She had me pyramiding. Usually 3 sets, 10 reps, 8 reps, 6 reps.
I am female, 36 YO, with body fat somewhere around 33% ( I have measured between 33-36%)
Thank you for any answers!

It looks okay. Will she have you do different exercises and rep ranges for your next workout? For example
step-ups 12-15 reps per set
Incline dumbbell bench 12-15 reps
Lat pulldowns 12-15 reps
dumbbell tricep ext 12-15 reps
ab work.0 -

She said we were going to do a circuit on Friday. I think ot will be close to the same, since I work with her twice a week and then on my own on Sundays.
