Beginner’s Guide to Fitness

In December of 2017, I was a 270 pound morbidly obese man. I decided it was time for a change. I did some research on weight lifting and cardio routines. What I found was that the human body has 7 primary movement patterns. These patterns include hinge, squat, lunge, push, pull, twist, and gait. 

To build an effective routine, you must incorporate exercises that encompass this entire range of movements. That's where Beginner's Guide to Fitness was born. 

This is the program I designed for myself that led me to lose 100 pounds. It is designed for someone new to the gym or just getting started on their fitness journey. It will be easy to follow but requires you to push yourself to get the maximum effect. It will require you to perform resistance training 3 times per week for 45 minutes each session.

There are many programs out there that will make you perform exercises to work up a sweat or designed for specific goals (I.e. bodybuilding). This program is not that. We will focus on understanding the movement patterns of the body and what exercises to perform to enhance each movement you use on a regular basis.

The Beginner's Guide is simple and easy to follow.
