I don’t know anything about how fitness works tbh. Been going to the gym for months now following a routine I made up with zero idea what I was doing. Just attempting to hit every muscle and seperating out muscles groups by days.
Any information or reliable guides would be great
And many of those morons will or have suffered self-caused injury and are primarily focusing on aesthetics and not fitness and getting appropriate results for that. Yes it’s possible to just be a meathead. That’s not what OP was asking. OP asked for how to find a good routine. Having asked that question myself, I found that were their tons of workout routines out there but that most of them have criticism that makes it very hard to determine what “good” is and a bunch of them are literally injury factories (looking sidelong at shitty CrossFit routines).
You don’t have to do 50+ hours of research just to get near a leg press. But if you want to find a good routine it’s going to be through a process of self-education, not asking for a YouTube video. If it was that easy, there’d be a very simple pedagogical approach out there that nearly every beginner would use and there isn’t such a thing.
