Strength Training for Beginners: A Complete Guide
Starting strength training can feel intimidating, but it doesn’t have to be. With the right approach, beginners can build strength safely and efficiently while avoiding injuries.
Why Strength Training Matters
Strength training boosts metabolism, builds lean muscle, and improves daily functional movement.
It also strengthens bones and joints—crucial for long-term fitness and injury prevention.
Beginner-Friendly Exercises
Start with exercises like bodyweight squats, rowing, dumbbell presses, and planks.
Focus on form first. Perfect technique before increasing weight.
How to Build a Routine
Begin with 2–3 weekly sessions, targeting full-body movements.
Rest 48 hours between strength days to allow muscles to recover and grow.
