Hey, could someone check my upper body workout, please? I'm not a beginner I went to the gym when I was around 14 but I stopped after 1.5 years because I had almost no results. I now know it's because I didn't eat enough and I didn't use progressive overload. I want to start again and I made an upper body workout I will use an upper and lower split and go to the gym 4x a week. Reps: 8-12 Sets: 3 Bench Press dumbbell chest press incline Bicep Curl Tricep Curl (don't know the name of the exercise) Cable Tricep Extension Barbell bent-over row Lat pulldown Bar Dips Pullups Lateral Raises Should I add or remove any exercises? Should I change the order of the exercises? Thank you, - kzread.inforiGTbWBVZGE (the excercise I don't know the name of you can see this youtuber doing it after the squat)

I asked a big man who was my height aswell 6'2, im pretty lank and facing someone same height as you with more muscle mass is a devastating experience. but in reality he was very chill and gave some advice when i needed it

my first time I went to a gym, I was so anxious and awkward, I decided to only workout after my evening shifts at work, at 1am, so that I can be alone in the 24h gym. It took me months to gain enough confidence to go mid day. It was absolutely for no reason though. You dont need to feel bad for anything. NO ONE cares about what you do or what you look like, and i mean that in the best possible way. And if you're not sure about something, almost everyone is super kind and helpful. I promise that the buff dude lifting 200kg is one of the most down to earth helpful dude in your gym :)

I always say to people don't overstay your first visits. Don't think that you have to do long 90 minute sessions when you first start. You can start small 30 min sessions because in the long term it is the consistency that matters. You can build up session length later as going to the gym becomes more consistent.

@@paule.2687 I remember when I joined a gym first time. Now, to give some context out, I had always been practicing martial arts, so I wasn't sedentary and had good cardio, but I was still pretty weak, as I had never had resistance training before, and because that's my body type, really (5'7'', 120lbs). Anyway, since you adjust the weights in the machines, that was pretty ok to me, but the trainer there also gave me some routine exercises that I can't even remember now, but like, I honestly knew right off the bat I'd never be able to do that. I don't even remember it all, but let's say you just joined the gym, and to finish off your training you have to do: 1min of pushups 1min of abdominals 1min of bridge At a decent rythm, there were also some free weight exercises in the middle and some other abdominal variations, of course, I just don't remember exactly how many exercises were there, but I'd say about 7 or 8, all of that 5 times. Even if I could do it, with the amount of exercises, I believe it'd take me around 40 minutes to 1 hour, considering I maintained a decent rythm throughout all the reps Edit: Also, forgot to mention this whole part was literally only "the finishing part", by the time I got there, I had already went through a whole 40min+ training schedule on the machines and done some free weight exercises, and after that I was still meant to do some cardio before leaving I stopped going because of other reasons, but at the very least, it's not like I'd be "traumatized" by that or something, because I already had a good notion of how hard the exercises were, as I had done them before in martial arts, just not in those intensities, but I believe it could be pretty bad some other people, which honestly might not be able to do a whole set of those exercises

@@SaryM29 Now that I'm reading your comment an idea came to me, and it's that maybe some trainers do that intentionally, because gyms are a bussiness and they kinda want more people to join than people actually going, so they discourage beginners with mad routines

As a gym veteran my advices are: You will feel uncomfortable from going to the gym maximum 1 month after your first day but trust me later on you will love the fact that you didn't give up. Focus on proper form not on kgs on the machine or on the barbell. Proper form> more kgs. Before buying supplements focus on your nutritions. Very important stay hydrated! Your muscle cells are mostly glucose and water so eat healthy carbs like rice potatoes and drink as much water as possible my best advice is 35 ml per kg. The protein is very important too but be careful with the fats they are essential in a healthy meal if you don't overconsume them.

The muscle stores glycogen, which are chained glucose molecules, which is pure sugar. What makes you think the muscle cares whether you got them from white rice or table sugar? That's mostly about appetite control and nutrients. Although white rice probably doesn't contain a whole lot of that anyway. Also, drink when you're thirsty. You don't drink x ml/kg of bodyweight. It all depends on climate, activity level, metabolism etc. Larger and more active people will drink more, no surprises there.

Going to the gym the first time is like starting a new job. The first day you're just learning the layout and where everything is. I don't go in with the mindset that I'm gonna do a full workout. Anytime I've switched gyms I always do the same thing, the first time I walk in I go straight to the treadmill. This gives you time where can just look around and get a mental picture of the layout. Then I'll pick a piece of equipment that I'm familiar with and go to that so I can get a different view of the layout, then maybe I'll walk to the bathroom, then maybe to the dumbell rack, the whole time just building a picture in my mind of where all the equipment is. The purpose for me on the first day isn't to do a workout, but just to familiarize myself with the new place, then the next time I go I'll be able to have a better plan of what I'm going to do.

My first time going to the gym was amazing. I felt right at home a few minutes in but only because I trained with a friend and we both had trainers that showed us everything and honestly that was one of the best things ive done in my life

Started working out during 2016 until now and I never had a bad experience to other gym bros, they are one of the most amazing/helpful people I know. Just remember have confidence and at the same time allow yourself to learn new things!!

Love to see you posting more vids recently. Since the pandemic I got a whole home gym setup. Squat rack, bench, bar bell I can load up to 395 pounds. The one thing that going to the gym did was keep me less lazy about getting up early and do my 5am workouts. I’m just so lazy now that the convenience is there.

Honestly this is a wonderful video. Well said mate. I've been going to the gym for years whenever I see someone new. It makes me happy to see them have the courage to start

The consistency 🥶

Yo guys! First day today, I have been training at a little home gym for a couple of months now and am now feeling ready( in terms of exercise selection/ form) to go! Luckily a friend of mine is already a member and we’ll go together! Cheers

My number 1 best advice for someone going to the gym who is afraid, go in the morning. In the morning is when all the older people are there, and the people who take the gym seriously. If you go after work at 5 to 8pm is when you'll see the "bros" the instagram girls, etc and for those few hours it's a madhouse. Also if you see an adult who is clearly an advanced lifter, don't look at them and be intimidated. Odds are they are the nicest guy in the gym and would help you with any questions you have.

Good video as always PictureFit! My #1 tip for beginners is to not be afraid of asking for help, or for someone to spot them! Some of the big guys with tattoos and such can be quite friendly, and they also started somewhere! ❤

And do not feel intimidated because everyone is there and putting efforts to improve their life and feel free to ask a gym bro for help because that's actually how I made friends.

I have been watching Jeff Nippard, shredded sports science, and other fitness channels for quite some time. I have been going to the gym for about a year and a half and I still look like a fool sometimes. It just happens. You shouldn’t let yourself be bothered by the idiots that will judge you.

One thing that I think the video missed is to remind people that the gym is not only for the looks. I first started the gym to have a healthier life and fix my knee. 1y later and I'm still going on strong, went for a healthy lifestyle and stayed for all the benefits it brought me (trust me, the mindset changes not only your body but your life as a whole, for the better). If you're a beginner, keep it up! The best step is always the one that gets you out of the couch

I went to the same gym for 3 years. The only time I was judged was after I got results. No one knew I existed until I was 170 pounds leaner and warming up with more than bodyweight exercises. Then I left due to my gym being overly crowded lounge area. With my new found confidence I financed a home gym where I repeated my routine that worked for me without a membership to pay or travel to commit too.

People are so helpful and non judgmental. I’ve been for four months now. I’m so proud of myself. I feel more energetic.

I remember being a child joining my mother going to the gym and being so intimidated by all the machines and the big weights and if I had to be honest the hardcore grammas and grandpas. After a year later of training in the basement quite literally I visited again. I was nervous as hell but eventually it just got easier of course it never went away fully. And even after getting comfortable it was super intimidating going to a new gym. No matter how much progress or familiar I got with weights and some Machine it was always hard going into a new gym even if I now have worked out for at least 2 years. I’m no senior in the gym but I liked the friendly community and the most fit people in the gym in my experience was always so nice and respectful

I started on June 14th 2022 and i stayed in the cardio area for almost a month. I was extremely intimidated and i had no confidence. But after a while i started doing 30 minutes of weightlifting and 30 minutes of cardio. The problem was that i was limiting my time in certain areas. I went through different techniques and time arrangements until i found the best one for me. Don't worry about the time you're spending at the gym unless you're resting for an unnecessary amount of time between sets. I spend an average of 2 hours in the gym now, all of that is weightlifting but i do my cardio at home, that being walking and swimming. If you are new to going to the gym, just know that you will want to quit, but it requires lots of dedication and discipline to keep going. Remember why you started and keep that in mind.

good timing, gonna go to the gym next week since I want to make my progress more consistent. My goal is to improve my strength to be able to progress a sport such as parkour or martial arts tricking, I'm not here for health and looks necessarily. 2 years ago I've been to the gym for 2 months, I wish I would've started doing parkour around that time since I had a lot of strength. My biggest challenge rn is finding a workout program, I need to prioritize lower body more than anything, since tricking is a lower-body dominant sport and in parkour, I'll need to take on impact more than climb on stuff. I still need upper body strength tho. I am also slightly scared on figuring out how to use the barbell for squats or deadlifts, since when I was at the gym, I only did machine stuff, dumbbell stuff and the barbell bench press and that's it.

I don't know much about this but you need to rest to allow your muscles to recover. After a good workout you shouldn't workout those muscles too much until 1-2 weeks( it depends on how hard you worked out). Just let them recover fully.

@@skraylers If you workout different muscles each day then it should be. As i said idk much about this most ppl only need to rest 1-2 days unless you workout beyond muscle failure.

Excellent video, earnt urself a subscriber

My first experience was in weight training, really just messing around, then slowly in the semester I start going everyday, not just every A day for class, this eventually got me into powerlifting and Have yet to take a massive break from it besides deloads. When I take a deload now it sucks because all I wanna do is crank out some heavy deadlift singles.

i remember walking in the gym for the first time on September 17 2021 yeah i was vary scared and concerned about what people thought but after 1 month i got over it now i walk in the gym and i imagine they have seen me for almost 4-5 months now they know me and everything’s normal

Yes!! I just saw Hamilton at the theater today! Great idea!

The gym are filled with understanding and nice people! Yet there may be some rare encounters of bad vibes. But believe me that you guys are going to be okay! The biggest step to overcome is the first day going! Once you accomplish that, everything else will fall in place 🙏🏽 if you want to get more familiar with the equipment, then do what i did on my first few weeks! (Go after 11 PM OR 12 AM) where there’s BARLEY anyone at the gym and you have so much to mess around with! It’s a great experience and it will help your mind! Don’t think about what others might be thinking of you because 9/10 people are more worried about themselves and that 1 from the 10 is finding you attractive and checking you out lmao also don’t be afraid to ask for tips! Especially from bigger people! They are the best and believe it or not they are more than willing to help! Go in there with confidence and focus on YOU queens and kings! 🙏🏽💪🏽 make those gains!

Not new to the gym but this was entertaining to watch👍

The gym giants are the nicest people!!

Great video as always picture fit :)

Thank you! Cheers!

Dont be scared it’s for you not anyone else, just pull through and you’ll feel happy

Amazing video.

As someone who survived their first January in the gym it honestly makes me laugh when I think back to a month ago when I was too embarrassed to touch even a machine. Your experience might not be the same or have been the same but it was only the first few times I went that it felt scary but by at least the fifth time there i was doing everything even the free weights without being nervous

I didnt think about my shorts ripping before, so thanks for that thought

i got my membership today :D will go later tonight at like 2 am, bc i wanna memorize the layout and understand stuff w/o having to wait for other ppl

2am? I'd be too sleepy

I'm letting the ads play for you. I'm still so happy you are back!

I remember my first time going to the gym, i accadenly used a 22.5 and a 25 for bicep curls 😂

A Planet Fitness is opening in my town soon and it's right by the GameXChange and the mexican restaurant and thing is that its less than a mile away so I can take a 17 minute walk, my guess is that it will be open in a couple months and when it opens I'm getting the black card membership and imma go almost every day

Gym 4 life baby!
