Hello, I'm new to working out in a gym. I have never really worked out in a gym setting and i feel out of place. I'm looking for help with what muscle groups to work out together in one day. I'm looking to educate myself a little more so don't just quit the gym. Be more confident inside the gym.

    Try googling workouts for beginners. Those are very helpful. The best advice I can give is to start slow and make sure you're comfortable. Starting the journey of working out is like rolling a snowball down a hill. It's small at first, but the farther you go the bigger and stronger you become. Workout on machines in the beginning so that you understand the concepts of working out, then work your way to free weights. However, some people stay on machines and that's okay. Treadmills and ellipticals are great ways to form cardio endurance. You can listen to music or watch netflix on your phone/tablet to make the time go by faster while doing those. Good luck :)

    Hi:

    many gyms have a "free personal training" session for new members. Try to use it . You have to share your goal with the trainer. I have a personal training session once a week and I found it very beneficial to improve my weight lifting technique and new exercise ideas.
    Good luck in your healthy journey
