@@iainduncan0303 lmao

Biggest mistake is not being consistent
So true
how often?
The Lynch King even if you can go 3 days a week, if it’s actually consistent for months you’ll see improvements. But 4-6 days is more optimal.
@@HaikesXO 4-6 days a week for a complete beginner is too often. 3 times a week lets them adapt to the environment and one's newbie gains recover for a longer time than a seasoned lifter's gains.
Kamil Bury he never stated he was new though
Don’t be afraid to ask questions
People are nicer than they look
Topboxing I agree. Most everyone is willing to help despite their appearance
As long as you dont occupied machines to check phone or dont put your dumbells on rack they will be glad to help you
As long as you keep it short and don't take advantage of the person's time. Don't try to learn everything about weight training in one day.

@@gon9684 Then you have the opposite problem, Lolz! Remember: our body is supposed to be a well rounded machine. It's useless to have a big torso with abnormally hypertrophic arms and nothing to hold them
#6 not putting the weights away after you use them
I don't mind it at all if people don't do this
I leave the weights for you, it's call considerations. Wish more people would do it
If you go to my gym at night, there is weights and barbell/dumbbells laying around everywhere. Nastier is our gym uses paper towels and spray bottles, people throw them on the ground (likely used to wipe sweat). Put the stuff back, literally only takes a minute.

Thomas Dalby so what? Stop making excuses
@Complex Ez I work 8-5pm I have to wake up at 6am stop making excuses I did the same shit when I started working now I go after work until 7pm
An actual beginner mistake is lifting heavier than you are able to fuel your ego infront of your friends. Lift light and do high reps as a beginner until you have the form down or else you will just get injured.
Tcc it’s called ego lifting and it’s all good since they probably end up all fucked up the next day not being able to move
This problem extends to ppl who have been going to the gym for years
True
'Stick to lighter weights bro ull get injured' bs
I did this to see if I could deadlift something (noone was around) and ended ended up having a shitty wrist injury cause of it
1. Only using machines (height, unnatural movement, no strength stabilizing)
2. Too many isolation exercises (compound movements = more muscles in less time, max weight increased)
3. Only using light weights (push your limits for more gains)
4. Not drinking water (combat against dehydration)
5. Not asking for help (allow others to motivate and help)
Thanks man. Sometimes I just want the SparkNotes to a video I've already watched
ArcticHound Gamer not all hero’s wear capes
Best comment 👍
ArcticHound Gamer Using the same weight for different movements is good though. Unless you're focusing on one thing.
THANK YOU
Consistency is key. As long as you do compound exercises, push yourself, dont eat like a pig, and go at LEAST 3 times a week, you should be fine. If you dont see results, dont quit. It will come in time
How should i be eating
@@tonyabelson729 Depends on if you’re trying to put on or lose weight. If you’re trying to put on weight make sure you eat in a caloric surplus with healthy foods that have lots of protein, fiber, and healthy fats. Some good examples are eggs, chicken, vegetables, fruits, etc. For losing weight you need to be in a caloric deficit where you are eating less calories than you are burning in a day while also eating them same healthy foods I just mentioned but in smaller portions. Hope this helps!
@@tonyabelson729 Like, something average that isn't for calorie deficit or bylking would be eating your normal 3-5 foods and some not processed snacks
true dont eat too much it slow down too much
Why say "eat like a pig"? It sounds like you've got some unwarranted disgust for other people and you're not aware of it.
1 to 3 repping is very dangerous especially for beginners. Once you develop good form you can try this strategy, but when you re new go for reps between 8 and 15 for minimizing the chance of injury!
High reps for beginners is pretty bad because their form will break down when they get tired. 5 rep sets are usually recommended because of this.
Mr Dr Sir isn’t 5 reps for strength?
FrazzaJ2000 ok ty
@@inoobi_2751 In bodybuilding you usually do a lot of reps for achieving hypertrophy, that makes your muscles grow bigger. In strength training it's more common with low reps, and high intensity to gain strength. For example the 5x5 stronglifts beginner program.
is something like 5x5 good?

>Barely does one rep

good shit my dude. XD
😂😂
For anyone reading and on a serious note, you do one rep max until you can do two reps with that weight, then you up the weight.
@@timangar9771 That's a terrible way to progress lmao, by the time you can do 2 times X, you're going to have to up the weight A LOT to have a challenge at 1RM again. 5/3/1 exists for a reason. I prefer the "range of reps, when you hit the max of the range, increase weight" such as doing 8-12 of some weight, and when you can do all sets at 12 reps, up the weight and re-evaluate.
One kid I know was bragging about how he could bench 300+ lb. He went to the gym very often, but his gym doesn’t have free weights, only machines. So we set him up with 300 in our school’s weight room and he unracks it, only to have it fall to the side and flip over onto the floor. Turns out he had little to no stabilizing muscles, so when doing free weight bench he couldn’t stabilize the 300lb
No free weights? Dang, that's worse than Planet Fitness
its not about simply about stabilizing, the weights when bench pressing are a lot heavier than when using machines
@@xChillOutHDx Some machines are actually very heavy. I can bench 255lbs for a single and on the push machine thing I can't even do 220lbs.
@@mathiasmartinkjrjensen3711 yeah machines are weird af when it comes to weight
I laugh at people when they say I can bench so much weight I go tell those people to do a muscle up 99% of them can't do it I then get on the chin up bar and pump out 10 and I then say "bro do you even lift?"

Mine biggest beginner mistake was not training hard enough. I did everything else right but didnt train hard enough. Big mistake.
I know that feeling too XD, well, now we know :)
@Matthew Anthony damn right.
@Jiayi Wang. He probably means something like pushing himself harder, like upping the weights and doing more sets or reps
My mistake was not using the right steroids
So training hard doesn't mean going to the gym frequently per se but it's actually how much you're lifting?
People also forget that slow progress is better than no progress (: So there's no reason to feel demotivated, or feel as if you aren't getting any results!

@@opetivaihola946 sometimes you just need to do it. There are times when your thoughts cloud your mind and it puts you down. But like you said just think deep and do it
Salaam brother, are you also shy? Because introversion means we need a lot of time alone and get drained from social interaction. Shyness is the one whereby we can't ask for help. I have both, but at the gym I get buzzed by the confidence of others and the music so I ask strangers for help on the machines if it's easier than looking up in CZcams. Now I know how to use the rowing machine and leg extension machine 💪🏽☺️😎
I made 4/5 of these mistakes when I first started lifting. Used too many machines, only did bicep curls on arm day, didnt ask for help much because I was afraid I'd get made fun of, and I definitely didn't lift heavy enough to get stronger. Luckily I corrected those mistakes and have gotten much better at my compound lifts and hit multiple new PRs
Asking someone who looks like they could wrestle and elephant into submission to spot you on the bench is one of the most intimidating things around. Especially when your 1 RM is his warm up weight😂😢😭
stop short of failure. shouldnt need a spotter on a regular basis
Progressive overload is huge. I was a 1-2 times per week gym goer for nearly a year, just doing the same amount of weight and seeing no progress. Then I hear about tracking your weights/reps week to week, add 5 pounds if you can, and I'm feeling great. Plus I decided to cut out drinking and workout 5 times a week lol
How are you doing 2 months later?
@@Humiliated1234 overall I've probably added 20% more weight to every lift. More gains in the leg department

Does your thirst not work?
First time I went to the gym, I was so intimidated that I did half of one exercise, skipped the other 7, hit the treadmill for 5 minutes and left.
Since then, I’ve made friends at the gym, asked for help and suggestions numerous times, even just for someone to check my form. What’s the worst that can happen? They say they don’t care and you both move on with your lives.
Fun Fact: No one has ever not helped me.
Bro on my first day of the gym my trainer didn't showed up and I had no idea what to do and was nervous to ask anyone what to do but a guy came over and asked if I need help and guided me on my first day.
It was just two months ago and since then I learned so much and improved as well.
I still need help with form in some exercises but I don't hesitate to ask anyone also that guy is still one of the coolest dude always there for help.
first day at the gym I just went on and off the stairmaster for fourty five minutes while awkwardly weaving my way around the treadmills, too nervous to get on.
The roidheads in my gym are actually pretty rude and get angry if you even dare to stare in their way

Introvert: No "laughs nervously for no reason"
I see all the extra mistakes in the comments but mistake number ♾️: not starting the gym
Stuck with 5x5 until i couldnt bench, squat, and row the weight. Switched to 3x5 and increasing my load was easier and the gains followed along. I would say doing 5x5 is good to get your form down right even if the weight seems too easy. Once you reach a progression limit with 5x5 switch to the 3x5 instead. Form matters!
What does 5x5 and all that mean?
Tbh, working out itself isnt even hard, its the motivation to do it

I used to focus too much on isolation machines. Needless to say I never made it passed newbie gains but, after adding a few compounds to my routine, I’m noticing that I’m making a ton of progress.
Awesome new upload!💪🏽
Great video! It's so important for beginners to be aware of these common mistakes to avoid injury and get the most out of their workouts. One thing I've learned from years of experience is the importance of proper form and technique - it's easy to get caught up in trying to lift heavier weights or push harder, but if your form is off, you're only setting yourself up for trouble in the long run. Keep up the good work in helping newbies navigate the gym safely and effectively!
Don't hesitate to ask for help trust I suffer from major social anxiety and walking into the gym for the first time i looked around thinking people were laughing at me but instead I asked a guy that works at the gym and he was a massive help I'm still trying to work on my body atm to get wider arms cos literally my arms r literally twigs also the people there r supportive as hell they will not look down on u they will literally applaud u for making a change
Number 5 is so important,in my experience gym bros have gained all this knowledge that's not really applicable outside the gym and are more than willing to help you out if you're lost
This really helped me a ton! I went to the gym for the first time a week ago and lost all confidence when I didn’t know what I was doing. I was really not looking forward to going again but this video really helped me get my confidence back. Thanks!
Went the first time earlier today and going again tomorrow, I'm trying to learn as much as possible 😂
I went for the second time yesterday and it was a ton of fun! Everyone was extremely nice to me and doing the program is fun as well.
@@snouthlly1479 great to hear! My second day was nice as well I got someone to show me around a bit!
I HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND WATCHING THE VIDEO ABOUT HPW TO CURE GYM ANXIETY BY LEO SKEPI 🌟
4 months in I hope you're still at it
The thing I would add to #3 is that you really need to master each exercise before you start to go heavy, and you need to keep second-guessing your form. Take videos and get others to critique. get others in the gym to critique. I've been doing this for coming up to 20 years and I would be lying if I said I do everything perfectly all the time. Those compound lifts like squats, bench press, deadlifts, and shoulder press that you advocate are notoriously difficult to master PROPERLY. Poor form + light weights you can get away with. Poor form + heavy weights and you're gonna make your local physio very rich and very happy.
Ronnie Coleman never learned how to get his booty to the ground. Honestly I don’t think he ever did one full rep range of motion squat in his life.
Love how you put in the idiocracy reference. That was awesome
He really does read all the comments
I met a guy in the gym that was 4 or 5 years ahead of me in my school, last time I saw him he was extremely obese, now he lost all that weight and is mostly muscle, I told him I remember him from school and I said it was insane how he got in such good shape, he told me how to keep the correct form on most machines and benches, he’s a really nice guy and he helped me a lot, go and talk to the guy who squats 200kg and benches 160kg for 5 reps, he will most likely help you and if not that’s ok, ask someone else, most people that go to the gym are really nice and helpful
I get the “I don’t lift but I’m experienced enough to give advice” vibe from this guy. No?
it sick. it piss.
Yup came here just to confirm
Jason Genova He used to be a personal trainer so I bet he lifts
Jason Genova He knows what he’s talking about, just watch his other videos and you’ll have no doubt in your mind. This is a very broad video so of course he didn’t cover a few important points such as proper form BEFORE doing heavy weights
Con Fidential, I’m not saying he doesn’t know what he’s talking about (in fact I knew everything in all his vids when I was a beginner) I’m just saying I get a vibe
I’ve actually found, (set #s 3 sets of 10) the best weight to use is one that you will be able to maybe get 10 the first rep, 8-9 the second and 6-8 the third. i do one isolation exercise for each muscle because i find it helps me to avoid muscle imbalances.
thank you very much this has helped me alot more than i thought it would in my fitness journey. i wouldn't be here without it and i'm very grateful.
Excellent beginner tips, this can definitely steer someone in the right direction while being on the simple side.
Number 5 was an issue I had, it got to the point where I went on Reddit and CZcams to show people my bench because I was stalling on the lift. I had at least 20 ppl give me great advice which helped me so much during my next benching session. Bottom line, asking for help only benefits you the most and more importantly saves you so much time.
Would love to see a video about speed training and what the research says are the best ways to train to get faster!
People saying that you shouldn't be afraid to ask for help are 100% correct. I remember when me and my sister first went to the gym and struggled to use a arm machine, the girl in front of us heard us talking about it and told us how to use it correctly
Yep, that about sums it up. Thanks for the vid, this is an important topic that needs to be addressed.
As a beginner, all you need to do for starting is the bench press, overhead press, Pulldown, Squat and Deadlifts and your gains will be so much faster than the isolation machines. You gotta have a really good form for your own accord though, so spend the first month doing these with just the bar so you get accustomed to the proper movement. And don't go for 1 rep max from the beginning, you risk potential injuries even with proper form because you are weak at the start. 5 sets of 5 is the best. Your welcome
Thanks! But how many times should i do this a week?
@@hashimemad7062 the best splits for beginning are either full body splits, so you hit every muscle group in every workout twice or max thrice per week with a rest day in between every workout, or an upper-lower body split twice a week so 4 training days, with e rest day between se first and the last two workouts. There is also the split where you go push pull legs twice per week, so you train 6 days per week with one rest, but there is too much volume for complete beginners and recovery will be hard
@@hashimemad7062 4 years ago when I started I went for full body split for 4 months and then I changed it to upper lower twice per week. The problem with full body split is that when you go hard to let's say squats, you don't have the capacity to go hard to the bench press, or the Deadlifts destroy your pull-ups etc. So full body to learn the technique and after a while the other training splits to load up the kilos on the bar. Definitely not the bro split though!
Αλέξανδρος Αναστασίου i am doing fullbody workout 3 times a week so i do deadlifts,squads,pullups,bench press and some other exercises all in 1 day then i recover but i am not sure if 3 times a week is enough or if doing fullbody in 1 day is not good for beginners
i am 17 years old so i still live with my parents i don't cook my own food so its hard to track my nutrition i am 191 cm,102 kg so i need at least 200 grams of protein a day its hard for me to reach that number especially the fact that i still don't cook my own food what advise would you give me for the protein intake :(
Mistake #6: *N O T B E I N G S U B S C R I B E D T O P I C T U R E F I T*
How comes your nose is brown dude
I go to a gym where there's always at least one trainer you can ask questions. They also sometimes ask if your training is going well and they make your training programme. This makes it "easy" for you to ask for help. I think its great and that its a nice midway between no help at all and an expensive trainer.
.
Dont know if this is standard cause I've only been to one gym but its great.
Great information. Glad to see it in a simple but engaging manner.
# 1 form is key when lifting any weight.
# 2 don’t rush exercises it will give better results.
#3 using a mixture of different weights is great and always lifting heavy on the same weight and struggling to do a set isn’t always necessary dropping the weight down slightly and doing some more reps on a lighter weight is just as effective as lifting heavy , but sticking on light weights that are easy too long you can raise the weight slightly again to give results. (Drop sets)
#4 being consistent is very important , always find another day to go to a gym when you cannot make it.
#5 if you are lifting heavy always have somebody spotting and know your boundary’s if you are lifting heavy you can lower reps but you must always push yourself for that extra rep if you can manage it.
Machines are good for beginners to build muscles and prepare themselves from free weights
Light weights are very effective and build muscles. 3 repping anything is begging for an injury. High reps increase strength and endurance with less chance on injury, not saying lifting heavier doesn't have advantages.
after how long should I start doing free weights?
I've been training for almost half a year now but i'm not sure if im ready for them
Doing both is better.
Bro I can see why you got so many well deserved subs great clean content keep it up!
I started out using mostly free weights, doing heavy compound exercises and hydrating myself well. And all these with a training partner.
Try avoiding the steroid dealers that are in there
I've been frequenting the gym for a year now and I haven't seen any gains for a few months now. The only noticable change is it takes longer to get my heart rate up during cardio now, which means my heart is stronger so that's nice, but everything else, I'm pretty sure I suck at.
This channel is amazing!!! Congrats on your great work!! Thanks a lot!
Thank you so much I'm still young and I'm still learning and your channel help me a lot
I definitely see the heavy use of machines and isolation exercises in the gym nowadays. Totally understand when inexperienced people choose these as a go to. I also agree with point on progressive overload and using weight that is challenging. Have to force the body to grow through adaptation and progression.
*Thank You!*
I was surfing CZcams for this.
;-)
I like these videos because instead of a over the top "gym lad" being all like GET BIG, but your videos are calm and collected. So much more easier to follow!
I appreciate that!

Never compare yourself to anyone . The internet has created a Toxic environment not everyone comes from the same place . Do what you do... Set a goal.. reach it then chase another one and most of all enjoy yourself .
I've just been getting in shape recently and in regards to the last mistake, just today I asked a guy to check my form on squats(because they're the most uncomfortable for me) and I found out I was apparently leaning to far forward, not keeping my heels on the ground, and not going down far enough. While it was rough making adjustments, (I near fell backwards), I actually felt more of the workout afterwards, as well as I was able to lift more with my heels in place. Ask For Help. It is important haha
“Gym bro, and brokered” I love this guy
4:32 nice idiocracy reference. It’s got what plants crave.
6: Ask for help if you need it.
7: Don’t ego lift because a guy just benched triple your body weight, believe it or not he was in your position once.
The most important.
Train safely.
I’m quite high and just re registred back ti ny gym. This video is perfect for me. Cheerch mate🥴🤩
As a new lifter its great advice. I havnt tried them yet but it sounds right
Really helpful advice, I also just made 3 Beginner Gym Mistakes You Need to Avoid video and that is from my own experience.
I wish I knew therm when I started, in the beginning, it would save so much time and money for me.
Have a blessing day folks.😀
wait how the hell does youtube know i've started goin to the gym recently?
It's Finnick Bitch!! Everything you search for in the internet is used to create suggestions for you, for example youtube videos. Since you started going to the gym I am pretty sure you googled for information at least once!
They also know what you are going to eat tomorrow.
they know everything you tap anywhere. even if you wrote, didnt even send and erased anything privately, next hour or day youll get suggestions about it
I would like to work out at the gym but I’m worried that I won’t know what to do. I would follow home workouts instead. As a beginner it helped me because I was able to follow along and if I messed up I would go back and replay that certain exercise and repeat it until I got it right. I feel like without the guidance of those videos I’ll get lost and not know what to do. My apartment complex already has a gym that I can go to whenever I want. I also have a workout plan and wanted to know if it was good.

This is so helpful! THANK YOU 🥰 specially tip 3 and 5
The other mistake is going too heavy when you've just started and mess up your form and as a result miss use or use the wrong muscles and not end up getting any gains. Start lifting really heavy for 3--6 reps when you hit a plateau which should at the very least take you 3-4 months

You wanna tell us that you gained nearly half of your earlier body weight in a year...
Great video!
Biggest thing im learning. Dont worry about the numbers on the scale. I weigh the same but my clothes are really loose now.
I don't know if it's just me but I don''t do isolations too much since I kinda hate using only 1 group of muscle to work. The only isolations I like are standing bicep curls and face pulls though the latter might mot even be isolation
"beginners hesitate to lift heavy"
Skinny 5"10 17 year old kid trying to deadlift 500lbs on first day: am I a joke to you?
it is always the sticks that want to lift 500lbs on their first day. i haven't seen any other average person try that weight on their first day. maybe they just tend to have common sense
@@dannified77 then they don't show up again after they make an ass of themselves. Like dude it's a gym, you don't have to be the heaviest litter, unless you're in a competition.
@@iamascumfuckbastard9269 yea
Thanks for the help! I just recently started and today was my second day, i had all this issues in just today lol!!
The only "true" way to get swole is.......put in an honest 5 years. You're going to learn about 10 x 10, 5x5, push pull legs, bro splits, etc....
All of these things work, and through the years you'll probably cycle through them all. But what is going to get you buff is showing up. Grade yourself like in school, 100percent A, 90 % B, 80% C. You're not getting ripped with a D in lifting.
Thank you very much you are really correct at some points.

Steps in order for most efficient workout
1. Body weight warm ups
2. Compound exercises
3. Isolation exercises
4. Machine exercises
Compound is first
I like to hit the big compound moments then hit some isolations for generally each area. For instance on upperbody day, I would do Skullcrushers for triceps, Barbell curls for biceps, I also do isolations for all the debts, something for forearms and stronger grip, it doesn't take much time, especailyl since its after I do compounds so its near the end
Very informative video, great video! :)
10+ for endurance
10 for beginners with EMPHASIS on Form/TECHNIQUE
6-10 for growth although 5-8 is a good range
3-5 for strength/power
1-3 is pretty much maximal
feels like everyone is gonna stare at me if i go, i’m skinny af and wanna hit the gym but i dunno i don’t have any proper gear either lol
U don't need any gear
People will respect you for trying to make a difference. Not mock you. Everyone is skinny before they begin training as nobody is born with huge great muscles.
i’ve been going to the gym for 5 months now. best decision i’ve ever made
