Three full-body sessions a week, one move learned properly, a walk on the days between, weights checked fortnightly.

  • 6 routines
  • 1 at a set time
  • Reminders when they are due

First month at the gym

Days and times are the pack's own. Change any of them after you add it.

  • Full-body sessionEvery Mon, Wed and Fri at 19:00Ten minutes on the bike or treadmill, then three sets of 8 to 12 of: leg press or goblet squat, chest press, seated row, dumbbell Romanian deadlift, and a plank. End each set with two reps left in the tank and write the weights down.
  • Stretch after trainingEvery Mon, Wed and FriFive minutes after each session: hips, hamstrings, chest and back, 30 seconds each, slow breaths.
  • Protein after trainingEvery Mon, Wed and FriA meal with protein within a couple of hours of the session: eggs, chicken rice with extra chicken, tofu, yoghurt.
  • Walk on the days betweenEvery Tue and ThuThirty minutes at a brisk pace on the days without the gym. It helps recovery and keeps the habit of moving daily.
  • Learn one move properlyOnce a weekPick one of the five moves, watch a demo, and ask the staff or a trainer to check your form once. Film a set and compare.
  • Fortnightly weight checkEvery 14 daysLook back at two weeks of logged weights. Anything you did for 12 clean reps two sessions running goes up a step next time.
