As many of you know I like to make sports and I've been doing this activity for almost all my life. Because of this people asked me for routines to start making exercise. That's why after a long time of thinking i decided to make this routine for newbies and start a healthy way of living.
This routine can be done in your house and the equipment that you need is very basic, you need the following:
![]() |
A pair of exercise bands |
![]() |
A yoga mat |
![]() |
Some weght to lift like 1,2,4 or 6 kgs |
Sports clothes and shoes
This routine is intended to be done three times per week and you should alternate the days from one training to another. The time that you'll invest should be 30 to 50 minutes every day and this is the recomended time to make excercise according to doctors.
The results of this routine, if you are disciplined enough and do the exercises with the proper technique, should start to be visible after one or two months of making this routine. Also is recomented to keep this routine for three or four months and after that change the routine to a more advanced one to keep having good results.
Finally is important to know that you also need to have a balanced food habits, drink water if you feel thirsty, stop making exercise if you feel dizzy or you have any kind of physical trouble. If you have complications of any kind is recomended to visit a doctor for an specialized point of view.
This excercises are intended to improve your quality of life, increase your physical strenght and security in yourself. If you experience the contrary effects I would suggest to stop the excercises and ask for professional assistance.
