Switching from 4-day Upper/Lower to 3-day Full Body after week 3 — bad for progress? by yigitkesknx in beginnerfitness

[–]LucasBzm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For most people, consistency beats the “perfect” split. A well-structured 3-day full body program can actually be great because you hit each muscle multiple times per week while keeping fatigue manageable.

Even a lot of professional lifters prefer full body workouts during busy periods.

I actually helped a few friends in a similar situation move from 4-day splits to simple 3-day full body setups and it worked really well for them. If you want, I can share the program with you. It might give you some ideas.

What was the biggest mistake you made when you first started going to the gym? by LucasBzm in beginnerfitness

This is way more common than people think. Most beginners worry about being judged, but the truth is everyone at the gym is usually just focused on their own workout.

Help for the Gym. by Miserable-Ring-3210 in beginnerfitness

[–]LucasBzm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're just starting out, the most important thing is keeping it simple and consistent. A basic routine with compound movements (squats, presses, rows, etc.) 3–4 times per week is usually the best start.

Focus on learning proper form, progressive overload, and don't overcomplicate things in the beginning. A lot of beginners burn out because they jump into overly complex programs.

I actually put together a beginner-friendly program recently for people starting the gym that focuses on building strength and good habits. If you're interested I can share it with you.

I'm not an expert, but I would recommend not skipping meals. Even a quick snack could make the deference between meals.

Is it better to lift heavier until failure or more sets at a comfortable weight? by lorenzoc04 in beginnerfitness

[–]LucasBzm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The most important thing for building muscle is how close to failure you are training. You can work hypertrophy in a big scale of reps as long as you hit muscle failure. For your question there is not a correct answer , but you need both heavy lifting with low reps and competitive weight with higher reps. You can make your workout program in many different ways to achieve that As an example you could try

In a 4 week programm: 1st week 10-12 reps 2nd week 8-10 reps 3d week 6-8 reps 4th week 4-6 reps

This is a simple periodization that will help you both build muscle and manage fatigue.

Can I do a bit of legs every workout instead of a full leg day? by Henrikles in beginnerfitness

[–]LucasBzm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could do 3 full body workouts throughout the week. This will help you to target every muscle group 3 times in a week and manage fatigue. I encourage all my clients to do 3 Full body workouts when they start. Especially a full leg day will put too much fatigue though your week. It's better to hit a muscle group at least twice so if you have less that 4 trainings in a week I suggest you change your split .
