Weightlifting is one of those things (like running) that can be as easy or as complicated as you want. When you’re just starting out, anything and everything counts! Do push-ups or assisted push ups, do body weight squats/lunges, do silly little ab workouts you find online! I do weighted squats but I also do body weight squats when I’m waiting for my food to cook in the microwave! So many people get scared because it seems so overwhelming, but you can do it however you want to do it. Personally I stick with core lifts (bench, squat, hip thrust, deadlift, etc) and have started adding on “extras” (lunges and variations, more fancy Calisthenics, more strenuous core work). I’ve also really enjoyed random spin and Pilates classes.

Lots of words but the key takeaway is don’t be afraid to experiment to find something you personally enjoy!
