Back and biceps training. Workout for those who take their first steps in fitness
We found out which exercises should be included in the program, and which ones beginners should forget about.
Often beginners forget to train the back, as it is not visible in the mirror and it is impossible to monitor progress. However, in no case should you forget about this muscle group, because it is the second largest in the human body. To pump your back well, try our workout for beginners. And a couple of biceps exercises will be a bonus to your workout plan.

If you want to increase mass, you need to do it at the expense of the big muscle groups: legs and back. If you don’t pay proper attention to them, your other muscles will develop much slower.
Kaj morate vedeti: forget about the deadlift in the first six months of training, otherwise the risk of injury is very high.
For each exercise we will do one warm-up set and 2-3 working sets. A working set includes 10 to 12 repetitions.

You should not strive to set records already at the first training sessions. Beginners always want to take a little more weight, because they see how other people work with more weight. But it is because of the increase in weight that the technique suffers. Doing exercises incorrectly will only hurt you, slowing your progress and increasing the likelihood of injury.
