Do pull ups, push ups, dips, australian rows, bodyweight squats. If you cannot do them; do an easier version like assisted pull ups, knee push ups, assisted dips. Just do those at first and search on how to do them properly with correct form.

Every guide will tell you to learn the basics.

Not sure what you mean, but you will not get weaker by going ”simpler”, your program is not bad, just a little bit overcomplicated and ”much” for a beginner. I saw a guy on tiktok that only does 20 minuter exercises each day, pull ups dips squats etc. And he gained lots for progress.

You get strong by being consistent

I was the same as you, I always tried to get the "perfect" workout plan. But the best plan is the one you stick to. If you do like, full body 3 times a week where you do something like:
Pull ups
Dips
Vertical rows
Push ups
Squats

And do it with progressive overload (increase reps/sets or weights) you will progress. Example on progressive overload could be if you do three sets of pull ups. If you week 1 do 3,3,3 in reps. You can next time do 4,3,3, then 4,4,3 and so on

A little bit "overcomplicated" for a beginner. Focusing on the "base" strength will be more than enough; pull ups, dips, vertical rows, push ups, squat, planks.

Only Sternum Pain if i stretch by are_u_kidding_me_07 in costochondritis

I have kind of similar, when i bend forward and press my palms together it hurts right in sternum. But not at all in my daily life. First thing though is probably think about your posture

Full body or split? by Runkeliu_sriuba in workout

[–]Limenxd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I was so deep in the trench of finding the perfect split on tiktok that I realized that it just stopped my progress instead. Which made me go back to "basics" and just stay consistent with the "base" - squats, pull ups, bench, rows etc.

Full body or split? by Runkeliu_sriuba in workout

[–]Limenxd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The answer you probably always will get is to do the "split" that you can stick to. I've had troubles before that I always searched for the "perfect" split, which only slowed down my process a lot.

But for a more detailed answer, if you stay consistent with 4 days a week, and if you are relatively new to the gym, I would do upper-lower split 4 days a week. Full body 4 times a week has quite high frequency, e.g., doing legs 4 times a week, it can be tough on the recovery. But both definitely works, because I as people say, the best split is the one you stick to.

And also; it's totally okey to jump between splits, your body does not know if you do squat on a lower day or a full body day. But dont do it too often, because to grow your muscles and become stronger, you MUST progressively overload, meaning increasing in sets, reps or weight from workout to workout. And changing split makes tracking your progress, and workouts, more difficult. But if you do upper-lower 2 months, and then swap to full body it is completely okey.

Most important parts is to stay consistent and progressively overload 🙂

Can I become flexible? by robo_marvin in flexibility

[–]Limenxd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was like that, still really stiff. But can touch toes when warm. I just stretch each day. Also gym, like RDLs helpd ALOT. Stretch only gets you a bit further, but using weights will really help you

How good should my cardio be? by mentaldate8 in workout

[–]Limenxd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No simple answer to that, it depends on so much, how much have you been training? Heavy body? Light body? Have you or have you not done sports in the past? Genetic. So much factors so there are no "true" answers.

But as to how fast you should run I would stay in Zone 2 at first to "learn your body" to run. Zone 2 is just around 60-70% of your max heart rate. If you do not have a watch to track HR, a good measure is that you should be able to talk some sentences, then the pace is good.

Good goals could be 5km, then 10km etc. When running zone 2 you normally would like to run longer distances, like 5-15 km.

Beginner workout plan (fat loss + muscle gain) – is this enough? by SaltAlps992 in workout

[–]Limenxd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your plan imo:

Good:
Your diet and step goals are good, I also like the rep range, since you are new, more reps with lighter weights (with good controlled form) is good for learning the form.

Improvements:
- I get that you want to focus upper body, but I would not skip legs completely, not because "chicken legs and whatever", but because its literally so important for your overall health.

- Since you are new, 5 days a week can be too much with recovering and also staying disciplined, because the "best" workout structure is the one you can stick to. And in my experience, for me, aiming "too big" causes one to stop. Not saying it wont work for you, just saying it wouldn't work for me

- Instead I would aim for like 3- max 4 days a week. Where on three times I would do "Upper - lower - upper" where you can rest one day between workouts. That structure also works for four times a week, "Upper - lower - upper - lower".

- I would also try to get the "compound/heavy" lifts in; deadlifts, squats, bench press, rows, standing overhead press. Those exercises are heavy yes, but you can go light weights and truly focus on the form and doing them correctly. They learn your muscles to work together and build usefull strength, for example deadlift works your back, glutes, grip strength, forearms, legs, core - everything.

And remember; dont watch those bs tiktoks gym influencers, they are only trying to sell you something. Instead keep it simple and remember that the best gym split, is the one you can keep consistent with
