What are some effective workout routines for beginners?

For beginners, I recommend starting with a mix of cardio and strength training. A simple routine could include walking or jogging for 20-30 minutes, followed by bodyweight exercises like push-ups, squats, and planks.

How many days a week should I work out?

Aim for at least 3-4 days a week. This allows your body to recover while still making progress. You can alternate between cardio and strength training days.

What should I do on my rest days?

On rest days, consider light activities like walking, stretching, or yoga. This helps with recovery without putting too much strain on your body.

Can you suggest a specific workout plan for a week?

Sure! Here’s a simple weekly plan:

• Monday: 30 min brisk walk + bodyweight exercises
• Tuesday: Rest or light yoga
• Wednesday: 20 min cycling + core workout
• Thursday: Rest
• Friday: 30 min jog + strength training
• Saturday: Active recovery (like hiking)
• Sunday: Rest.
