How to Do a Beginner Workout at

## Getting Started with Beginner Workouts

Set realistic goals. If you're not used to working out, you're not going to run a marathon next week. Start with smaller, more achievable goals, such as working out three times a week for 30 minutes.

Choose activities you enjoy. If you don't like an activity, then you're less likely to stick with it. There are endless ways to get a good workout, so find something that you enjoy and that fits into your lifestyle.

Start slowly and gradually increase intensity. Don't try to do too much too soon, or you'll end up feeling discouraged and sore. Start with light intensity workouts and gradually increase the intensity and duration as you get stronger.

Warm up and cool down. warming up before your workout and cool down afterwards will help to prevent injuries. A warm-up should gradually increase your heart rate and get your muscles ready for activity. A cool down should gradually decrease your heart rate and help your muscles to recover.

Listen to your body. If you feel pain, stop and rest. Don't over do it, or you could end up injured.
