Been laying in bed for about a year, gained about 65 lbs and I finally got my gym membership again so I'm leaving in about 15 minutes to start. Thanks for the help brix.
Have made it about 3 to 4 times a week until a week ago and I've kinda been sitting around a lot. Gonna start again on saturday
@@dancerscreiplot5695 you got this! Just remember your going to the gym to help yourself, don't worry about anyone else in there. I always leave when to many people are at the gym but I'm trying to fight my social anxiety and get over it

4 sets with 10-12 reps for each exercise.
@Jose Santiago at the beginning he recommends 2-3 days and supplementing it with cardio around the same amount of days
The “four sets of twelve reps” advice is the key I’ve been missing. I would just do one set of a random weight until I got tired lol - thanks for solving the greatest mystery
@@BESTMOAD I don’t know but they have them at Planet Fitness which is $10 a month. Good luck
@@swordssolitude3861 every planet fitness is there one in Alabama im so out of the loop about gyms
Exactly! I go to the gym and i keep seeing these buff peeps pushing some weights and then pacing up and down for a minute then pushing some more weights...now I know they were taking a break between their reps. The 4x12 really helps me get started and see where I stand. I wonder if there is any "golden rule" about how much you should rest between reps?
Thank you for this video my man. All the other UA-camrs never actually tell you what to do and how. They just spend 10 minutes talking about random stuff and then try to get you to buy something. Seriously, thank you my friend.
This is whats needed. A lot of people have no idea about how to properly use the stations.
I’ve started my weight loss journey and all I’ve been doing this past month is cardio and chest press. I feel more confident now you showcased how to use the other machines. Thanks brix ❤️
I’m not trying to lose weight but the fact that you provide the fat loss guide for free really tells me that you’re not here for self serving purposes, you’re here to genuinely help people. I loved this video, I was deep into fitness years ago and now I’m ready to jump back in, just wanted a simple place to start 😊
This man makes me excited to go to the gym as a beginner chubby teen I’m not comfortable with my body but seeing where this man came from I know it’s not impossible!!! 💪🏾
Same here as a skinny dude, I am pretty intimidated to go but this video helps me!
@@micahh8840 started quite recently but the vid has genuinely helped me improve, I am starting to see some progress
@@dukkyftw11 good shit , did you strictly just do the exercises he stated in this video or have you also incorporated other things too ?
I just wanted to say thank you. I have watched a shit ton of videos trying to find a starting place. This is the first one that makes me feel welcome and that you aren’t talking down to me, but explaining it a way that inspires success. You made everything simple and explained in terms I could actually understand! Thanks again!!
Thanks Brix. I'm getting back to the gym and I'm sometimes intimidated on where to start and am i doing it all right. Appreciate your dedication to your craft. You're walking 🚶♂️in your purpose. I'm 6'3, 250lbs and 47. Be blessed.
Yeah this was well needed ! Just got back into the gym and was looking for a good full body routine ! The king is back
This is EXACTLY what I needed. With all the workout videos online you’d be surprised how many lack this pertinent information. Tysm! 🙏🏾
You are a life saver. I just got back in the gym and was so afraid to even get on certain machines because I did not know what to do. Thank you. Now I can go to the gym and be confident
Ive spent a lot of time to trying to put together a routine for myself. Your video just gave me exactly what I needed. And being able to see how you transformed your body is a great motivator for me. I want the same thing.
I truly can’t thank you enough for this. I used to know just what to do, but going on 10 years being outta the gym and becoming more sedentary, I’ve been overwhelmed by what I used to do. I’m a true beginner again and this gives me a solid structure to start from. Thank you for this video and being kind, sincere, and patient by explaining it all ❤
Thank you! I ran this set yesterday morning and it was exactly what I was looking for. Straightforward & easy to follow. And your tips about when to add/remove weight was spot on. I’m just starting out so only at 15, but I started at 10 and it felt too easy after the first rep.
Have a long way to go to shed 65 lbs, but I got out there and did it with your guidance in this video!
Amazing video. I’m doing this at they gym now. I love that it shows proper form and how to utilize the machine correctly
I’m new to the gym and this was super helpful.
It can be quite intimidating. So thanks.
Fantastic, Brix!! Great base points for folks who need to reboot their strength training journey after significant time away. 🙌👍
This is exactly what I've needed. Never worked out in a gym before a couple of weeks ago and I was feeling self-conscious about my knowledge of the machines. Also a bit worried I might inadvertently get injured. This video is short, sharp and to the point. Cheers from England :D
Thank you for making this video!! I'm a frail young girl living in Australia and every time I walk into the gym I feel insecure and unsure of where to start. This routine is super easy to follow and I just know within a month or two I'll gain enough muscle and confidence to start lifting free weights. Thankyou
Great video . Thanks for showing this. I'm going to show it my wife .. we just got back into working out and need the refresher ideas.
Respect for not being afraid and giving people actual rep ranges. Starting out straight forward setups, a lot of times, is vital to help that life change begin. Keep up the grind and content 💯
What he said about the first set should be if it to easy or to hard like if I hit a certain number of reps in one set to change it up ?
This is a great workout. I personally was an athlete in high school. I felt pretty good throughout high school, but since I graduated I’ve added a bit of weight. Doing this while adding a healthy diet is AMAZING
It's amazing how many videos I have had to watch until know to have this question answered. The rep /set balance people have been saying the same things but in parables. Thanks for stating that in the most lucid way to someone like me
Thank you!!!!! I'm 5'7, young and have been generally healthy. Unfortunately I had surgery 3 years ago and went from 180lbs to 387lbs. I'm now off the meds and have permission to get back to where I need to be. I have been going to the gym the last 3 months and have already lost 20lbs but I was always just staring at the machines. I can only do machines for now because i have no balance. Not knowing how to use them or how many times was really pushing me away. You have no idea how much this helped me man. I'm going everyday now at 4am doing your exercises. Once I learn proper gym etiquette and the do's and don'ts when sharing machines with other people ill start going in the day. Thank you again!
Thank you so much for this video, I am about to start working out and I have been having trouble finding an in detail video. I also appreciate you teaching proper form for all the exercises.
This is a really nice well rounded routine that I've incorporated into one of my non run days. The tip on figuring out how my weight to use was really helpful. Thanks.
I was trying to be consistent in the gym but felt like I was just freestyling with no direction. I Just watched this in the parking lot before going into the gym after taking a few months off. I feel like I have a great routine to start with now and 1000% more confident about going more now. Thank you 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
Going to the gym for the 1st time in 6 years today. Thank you for the tips and motivation. I want to love myself again
Thanks for this I'm really shy at the gym but now with this video I have more knowledge and I can do my exercises better.
Thank you, Brix, I needed this. You gave such thorough instruction and tips to check for proper usage and form. I'm excited to try this routine at my local gym!
Thank you for showing how to use the equipment you made it look so easy I watch so many other videos before yours that didn't really explain how to use the equipment that well
I'm not trying to lose any weight or anything but this has been really helpful. Thank you for explaining and demonstrating so effectively and efficiently.
Needed to see this so much, hardly any videos out there for those just starting out and will be a great help.
This was so helpful!!! And actually beginner friendly. People post workouts but they aren’t as thorough!! Thank you!!!!
Testimonial - This is probably the best video I've found. Im in a wheelchair and started working out today. I can't do a lot of what some of these other guys are doing. But this is straightforward and precise. Thank you.
Thank you for this. Going to the gym for the 2nd time tomorrow and I'm going to push through my anxiety and try this!
Yessir. Thank you for mentioning the stomach and placement of your legs/thighs. The way you instruct is awesome! Thank you for sharing.
BrixSquad💪🏽💪🏽💯💯 thanks for this!!!!!! Been waking up early to get back intocrhe routine of going back to the gym!! You always come thru!
I appreciate you mane! Got my vasa membership last night and I’m excited to get my ass back into the gym. It’s been 8 years since my last work out. Definitely a change in my life ahead!
This is just what I’d been looking for as the idea of going to do gym and what workouts to do and in what order, it was all very overwhelming. Can’t wait to go to the gym with this routine now. Thank you!
As a women that has always bounced in and out of the gyms. I feel like now at my age I am lost on how to put a simple routine together going back into the gym. Today ill start with your basic guide. Wish me luck lol. Thx again
Thanks brix. I'm 17 I've been overweight my whole life. Although I'm active kid and played sports I've always struggled with weight. I've always been insecure and self conscious about going too gyms. I finally decided to go the military route because idk what I wanna do with my life yet and I feel that is a good too get going. I finally made the decision to try the gym been going for about 2 weeks and I have a trainer I work with once every week. I'm at 235 and gotta get down too 160-170 for military. I've changed my diet completely and now will be using your plan in with it as well as long as your workout tips. I really appreciate you sharing your tips too me and the rest of us👍
Best explanation on how to do thing I've seen so far. Great job and thanks
Thanks for this and the thorough explanations. You are the person needed when at the gym!!!
This video was exactly what I needed!! 🔥🔥🔥
Bless your heart❤..you know what it's like for a person starting out overweight & as a beginner! The weight, bad knees, weak lower back & Sciatica pain has kept me Stationary toooooo long! I'm tired of this immobile life! Thank you very much. I request more creative exercises for real beginners. This for me is like reabilitation...more than a beginner type excercise?😒
Thank you for this. I haven’t been to the gym in years and even though I’ve worked with a trainer before, I still needed this to get started again
🔥 straight to the point, many would spending 3/4 of the vídeo pointing university studies and show no exercise for you to click on the link bellow 😎.
Well done Sr.
This has been one of the best video I’ve seen yet. Really good at explaining each set. Definitely going to add this to my gym routine. Thanks!
Thank you, this is detailed, well edited, well explained, and very achievable. I have gout for years, started a bit of weight loss via cardio, and always feared weight training triggering the gout. This should be a good start
Thanks Brix...this is exactly what I was looking for! Enough to restart on a basic foundation after long time away from the gym. Like you said, we can add more complex movements over time going forward. Planet Fitness here I come!💪🏻
@@Idkdude69 it’s not about motivation sir! It’s about discipline and consistency
Not gonna lie my body is a mess, I'm a smoker etc. Not overweight but trying to get fit maybe gain a little mass. Been going to the gym for about 2 week, knowing nothing. I use machines with low weight but never really had a schedule. This is totally what I needed. At 51 just trying to get better and you my friend are the only one that has made an explanation that I could follow.
This is me exactly, 38 tho. Not heavy but definitely outta shape and heavy smoker. Good luck lm starting Monday
@@goldmedalsucks all I can recommend is no matter what force yourself to go. After a bit it becomes habit
Just started the gym today after years of drinking and neglecting taking care of myself. Not only has your content encouraged me to go for it. But having this simple plan made it wayyy less anxious of an experience having a plan to follow. Thank you immensely.
Same I spent last 8 or 9 years drinking my life away ready for a change
@allgastrucking4954 how you doing brotha? Hope this finds you well. Just wanted to check in and say I'm down 30lbs and back into a Lg from a 2x since returning to the gym. Hardest part is starting but if your heart is in it then you'll learn to love that soreness as a sense of accomplishment
Finally, been looking for someone who you can see their transition and know they get the beginner delema. Other UA-camrs say they have beginner things yet they've been lifting since their 15
Thanks for the tips and thanks for keeping it simple. Most coaches go on about calories and crazy complicated workouits. I just want an all round workout to be healthy and toned.
Thank you so much for this video. I have a gym membership and didn’t even know what to be doing in the gym.
Love this video. Can't wait to get back into the gym. Thanks for sharing this video.
Such a humble dude, lot of respect all the way from Birmingham England 🏴💪🏼👍🏼
This is precisely what I was looking for, I appreciate the help!
I just started going back to the gym. Thanks for being practical with this vid. You have a new subscriber.
ive been going to the gym just kind of doing random things working out but i needed to really get a proper workout routine in line so this helped
Thank you bro,second day in the gym and I feel confident now
Just started going to the gym about 3 days ago. Been doing only cardio but tomorrow I’m gonna do some lifting. Thanks for the video
Can’t wait to try this out Brix, you just got a new subscriber….just what I’ve been looking for.
Heard your story on F&F today and just wanted to say thank you for helping me to see I have no excuse to not hit the gym, making big lifestyle changes and part of that I owe to you
Just singed up for a Gym. Im shy but excited going my first day tomorrow. Thank you for the tips.
Cheers Brix! My gym journey starts now! I'm a 100% beginner, have no idea what to do in a gym. But your videos are pushing me forward! Thank you!
Thanks for posting this!
It helped me a lot as I’m just beginning.
I'm 59 yo not on a weight loss journey as much as a fit stronger body. Haven't worked out seriously in years. This is perfect for me to get started. I want my chest back and to get my belly/abs flatter. Don't need a washboard or six pack a case will do just fine....lol. Thanks for this....instantly subscribed after video.
Great machine workout, got lots of tips to implement, thank you!
Great stuff, simple and straightforward. Thanks.
Finally the video i was looking for. Now i can finally start my gym journey
Thanks for the video I just started back working out since COVID began I’ve tried for years to get in shape but have not been consistent but this time I’m serious I’ve been going 6 days a week
Just started going and had no idea where to start so I just was on the treadmill . Exactly what I was looking for
Thanks for saying that about the weight in the beginning, literally the answer I’ve been looking for
Finally joined our local rec center for the first time to get a little fittness, and they don't really have people to help me get started. This video was the ticket to get started! Thanks Brix!
This has helped me out big time by the way been a subscriber for awhile keep the knowledge going 💯
Thanks, I plan to get started this week.
Thanks for the video, I was wondering where to start and you helped me figure it out. Thanks!
Thank you for your guidance and those few critical tips that are going to prevent a newconer from injury. You are awesome!
Thank you (: i just started going to the gym last week + had been looking at videos for a while before joining, but your one is the first that's clicked + fully made sense to me (:
Especially since these are pretty much my favourite machines at the minute - many videos inlcude free weights + I'm not ready for that just yet
Had to sub after watching this vid. Appreciate that you effectively address the questions a beginner might be having that can be a deterrent to workout success
Started this workout this morning, really enjoyed it - thanks for sharing mate. :)
Appreciate the gem. Thanks for helping us beginners
Thanks for this video im gonna try it out seems very straight forward, thanks for explaining how to use machines properly
Some really nice tips there I've not seen elsewhere - good video and it's nice to have support when you're clueless at the gym. Thanks!
Thank you sir! Exactly what I need! Just got a gym membership. God bless you for this!
Thank you sir, as a beginner your video helped me a lot ❤️
Just started your beginner workout today, felt great. I have this feeling that I want to do it more haha Thanks!
Just watching this has got me motivated to start my gym life now that I've dropped 60+ lbs I'm ready to gain some muscle.
Great video! It looks like i was doing a few exercises wrong. I will implement these techniques in my workout going forward. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
You changed my life. Thank you 😊 🙏
Good to see I've been doing some things right, I normally do it in long runs about 2 hours but that's because I know my body can handle long runs. Side note when your used to this routine then add in even more, but only once this becomes second nature.
I love the help you provide!!! Thanks
Thanks for this. I gonna go back to the gym and want something that works for full body. Will definitely do all of this.
Thank you, I feel more knowing about starting tomorrow! I took notes.
Hi Brix, I was completely lost in what to do to begin with. Thank you for showing this routine.

I've been doing this workout for 4 months, 3 days a week no cheat days. Increasing weights 10 pounds a week except leg press which I increase 20lb. I wanted to "level up" this workout, and a friend of mine who has lifted for 10 years suggested:
Swapping leg press for squats
Adding calf raise machine
Adding bicept curl machine
Any opinion on those additions?
Aye bra you a inspiration
