Exercise as like most things, it vary’s from person to person, how you exercise and more importantly how you begin to exercise. If you haven’t exercised for a long time or have been inactive for a while you MUST start slowly, increasing your exercise/weight resistance gradually. Pushing yourself to hard and rushing into exercising can only demotivate you.
A successful exercise program consists of three vital parts: Warm up, Aerobic exercise and Cool Down. Never start exercise without warming up or cooling down correctly to prevent muscle strains, pulls and cramps. Look at our warm-up & cool down page to see the exercises you need to perform.
Beginners exercise program
This is a short suggested program for beginners or those who have not exercised for a considerable time and is to be performed 3 times a week every other day i.e Monday, Wednesday & Friday.
This beginners exercise routeen is designed to provide general improvement in muscle tone, strength, flexibility and co-ordination and should not take longer than 20 minutes.
As a beginner you should start with no more than 2 sets of 6 exercises for the following reps on each gym staition. If you find this routeen too easy; stick with it and move onto bigger weights after a week, the worst thing you can do is rush yourself.
Example exercise program for beginners:
