Free Workout Guides

This guide is for people who are new to working out.

There are some simple things people use to get started; some of these are the FITT and SMART principals.

FITT stands for:

F: Frequency, how often you are going to the gym (ex: 4-7 times a week).

I: Intensity, how hard are you going to push your self?

T: Time, how long are you going to spend at the gym (ex: 45 minutes).

T: Type, What type of exercises are you going to achieve at the gym, for that day (ex: Bench press, Incline dumbbell press, ect...)

SMART stands for:

S: Specific, what are you going to do to attain your goal?

M: Measurable, how are you going to achieve it?

A: Attainable, do you believe you can achieve this goal.

R: Realistic, is your goal realistic (ex: if you have never run in your life, don’t try and run a marathon in 2 weeks of training).

T: Time, how long are you going to spend at the gym (ex: 45 minutes).

Also, some points to consider when working out, ALWAYS breath during exercises (sounds silly eh?). Most people hold their breath during exercises. This is not a good idea. You should always breathe out during the most difficulty part of the exercise (ex: The upward push on the bench press).

Please feel free to add to this. I probably will be adding to it later on.
