But you want to set up a routine that allows you to hit your largest muscle groups in general multiple times per week because what it's going to allow you to do with these compound movements is you're going to get some secondary influence on some of the smaller muscle groups.

And what I mean by that is if we tell a person, hey, we're going to build your routine on three days off of big compound movements, one of them is going to be bench press, right? So, yeah, you're working your chest, you're working your shoulders, you're working your triceps. You don't necessarily have to spend all of your minute time focusing entirely on triceps to to hit these minimums.

But you are getting some work in play to help prevent lean muscle loss and actually build some muscle, particularly if you're a beginner. So you're going to want to focus on those big lifts. It's not going to be the Instagram, you know, circus type lifts that people do to get reels and to set up reels and get views. But it's going to be the things that are the tried and true.

So when you go to a trainer, And they set you up with things that you've probably heard before. That's probably a good sign that you're in the right path.

Yeah.

You can regress these too. If somebody goes in and they're like, I'm really uncomfortable with squat, well, do some air squats. Right, right.

I also think that it's a really good choice that people can make is if you feel intimidated about getting in and lifting some of these heavy weights and some of these traditional movements.

sign up for one of those group classes that they have that actually uses some weights you know it's is it as optimal as setting up a proper routine with you know the free weights and machines that we might be using if we just set up something for optimization's sake probably not but again we're going to start to build that routine we get a person in and that community that that can help foster can make people feel really good yeah my only note on that is that a lot of the group classes tend to skew younger
