megsquats Your the best meg. Your humor and delivery of helpful, on point instruction is refreshing. Outfit, hair, eyes, and eyeshadow only accent your work of art. Looking great.
MedusA A if she was trans that would be one thing, but your an ignorant troll trolling. What’s the point of saying ignorant stuff about someone that has a distinct positive message and goals. If a beautiful woman who works out hard to be strong and have natural curves with a healthy body fat, intimidates you than I suggest you check out the man in the mirror.
1:38 Master form for several fundamental movement patterns (eg. Squat, hip hinge, push, pull) 4:12 Progressive overload 7:17 Get enough protein 8:17 Prioritise compound movements 9:52 Mobility
Yes! Agreed! All of the above and I liked the part around the 3:30 mark about professionals always working on technique - nobody is every 100% efficient. It's so easy to compare ourselves to others while we're in the gym I thought this was a great reminder!
After years of being too intimidated to start lifting, I finally ditched the HIIT/cardio only workouts and started! I just wanted to say THANK YOU because if I hadn’t found your channel, I don’t think I ever would have started lifting. I never imagined that I would be in the gym squatting and deadlifting and I am in LOVE with it. Thank you thank you thank you.
For ladies out there who are afraid of the free weights section or walking up to the squat rack because it is usually dominated by men, here’s what i have to say: its all in your head!! I personally weight train and have seen all sorts of people at the gym. Guess what? The men there are just as clueless about weight training as you are! So don’t be afraid or self conscious and start weight training!!
Mobility is super underrated. When I was a beginner it felt as if everyone always focused so much on adding more weight. I didn't pay much attention to stretching and mobility work bc I felt like I should use that time to do more reps/sets. Then I realise that every GOOD / respectable lifter I follow put mobility on high priority. Definitely wish I can go back to focus more on this earlier!
I totally agree! Meg has one of the only channels that I've seen that focuses on explaining true technique behind movements- not just filming a workout and being like 'kay guyz, that was for your butt.' A true source of information! Love!
I have been lifting fairly consistently for 2 years...and I have made SO many mistakes. I was solely dedicated on losing weight when I first started my fitness journey so progressive overload wasn't even on my mind, now I feel inspired to actually begin weightlifting to actually get stronger. Especially seeing as I was just trying to look leaner and not focusing on performance... I'm excited to start!!
Not a new lifter but i was feeling really nervous about going back to the gyms now they're opening again. Thank you for reminding us we always have things to work on :)
Wonderful tips, nothing to say. I would just add one more tip: -try and perfectionate the routine that you personally enjoy the most. Loving what you do and being able to stick with the habit is more important than doing the perfect gym routine for three months and then let it go because you hate and don't enjoy it.
Best advice is protein. I'm doing very early dumbbell training as a complete beginner. Increasing my protein levels have been awesome. I feel fuller, my weight is not going up but my body has changed massively in six weeks.
Seeing the numbers on the weights go up is very motivating for me. Maybe it's because I like video games and seeing the numbers on the weights go up makes me feel like I've levelled up ^_^
I'm on my 4th month of gym subscription and month 2 of actually taking it seriously. Gotta say, I'm so hungry and sore right now but I'm psyched to keep going. Love your videos, thank you for all of it
New sub! Last month, I just started going to the gym 3 times a week and have kept it up surprisingly after years of failed attempts. Im 29 204 lbs 5 3 and I ONLY do weights when I go. I’m top heavy so I hate cardio 😄Weight training was the only way I wouldn’t t dread going to the gym each day. I haven’t lost weight (still working out my meal plan) but I have lost inches 3 inches overall, it’s not much but it’s enough to keep me motivated to keep at it. Plus I feel much stronger, I’ve been progressive lifting💪🏽. I decided last week I will train like a baby power lifter lol so I’m super glad I found your channel. I’ve always been reluctant to doing compound movements but something clicked when I saw this video and the gain strength lose weight vid. You’re so right, you’re getting more for your time by doing these! Thanks for the tips sis. Def going to start this. And by the way, You are so ssstupid gorgeous 😬 🥴🌹
Yesss.... I started following you a few days ago, and you inspired me. I am 48 but I have no limits, last year got my 200 Hr. Yoga Inst. and 50 hr. Trauma-Informed.. I had been doing Hot Yoga every day ... BUT always wanted to get in the gym, but to be honest... I feel so scared and lost. Being 5'1 and now 145 due to COVID isolation, the machines scare me, because I feel they are for bigger people and the weight room well living in guido central here in NJ shore.. lol... Totallllyyy intimidated. I joined the gym, because of you last week, been watching everything you have out there and I went today, but only did cardio like a hampster... I walked around lost, and even stared down the weight area, and said ... I will enter tomorrow... lol... terrified and lost.... this video PERRRRRRFECT timing.... I LOVE YOU!!!! I am on the Journey... I am looking to get anyone I know to get a lifting buddy but I cannot even get them to the yoga studio... so it is me and you... every day : ) much love... from Manalapan NJ ...Jules
Girl I live in Jersey and I FEEEEEEEEL you! haha One thing I did to feel less intimidated was put my headphones in, turn up my music REALLY loudly, and keep my eyes focused on the floor or directly ahead of me. Biggest and hardest thing for me was to not make eye contact. The goal with this was to help me feel like I was the only one in the room, and it honestly worked! I know this won't work for everyone, but after a few weeks in the gym I was able to look people in the eye and nod a "Hello" because I felt more like I belonged there. And we DO belong there! We just tend to get it in our heads that we don't lol. Best of luck!
@@catharinetarquinio3400 100%. I have learned this, it's funny you posted this today because it was a realization to me today that I must seem like bitchy chick that flies in and out, but I am only working with what I am surrounded... lol.. #truth...lol
Hi! I’m gearing up to start a routine including lifting... to meet some goal I have never met... I’m gonna be 53 this year and I’m going for it!! Your videos are very inspiring, informative and easy to follow!! Thank you!!🇺🇸❤️🕊
I am a complete newb im so inpired by these women who go from normal to insanely cut and strong. Im definitely signing up for this Tuesday is my first day in a gym in 6 years.
Definitely get a set program and track your reps and weights. I take a little book with me to the gym and write down everything I do. It sometimes surprises me to see how much I am improving as a novice lifter.
This is my first year of lifting and I love it! However it is so easy to get a bit lost or not overload enough. Sometimes I question when I'm ready to go higher or not and question my form. Just became a member of stronger by the day after doing the trial! So stoked let's do ittt
Breakdown of the 1st year lifter: Fundamental form, Programing/ progressive loading + Consistency, Diet/ fueling your gains, Compound movements, Mobility Film yourself to watch form. I just passed the one year point back to the gym. I can't stress how important consistency, a rest day and dieting. Proper fuel for the body makes looking and feeling good easier!🥰
Watching your videos always makes me miss the gym!! Goodness I can’t wait to lift again... thanks for the tips... after so long without lifting I feel I’m reverting to beginner status!!
I’ve been strength training for 6 months and this video was very helpful and also reinforced what I’m training in regards to compound movements. I LOVE your goal to get every woman under a barbell! Love your work ❤️
Hi, Meg... quite an informative video. Do you have a video on how to restart Gym life again after a long time, say after one year... What should I do? in terms of weight training, what program to follow?
This is GOLD!! Definitely saving to share with others! You're the Best!👍That gym is amazing looking, congrats and hoping you guys are enjoying Fort Worth, see ya around.
5x5 gets you in and out the gym 30 minutes minimum and add 15 minute cardio at the end. You will be challenged and rejuvenated. Essentially, your desire to sustain your fitness cannot be quelched. Then you can do another program in 12 weeks. You have your whole life, enjoy it.
Great video Meg, thanks for making it! I have recently persuaded my parents to get into lifting - your well-articulated video will go down well with them!
Just found your page and my oh my I'm so glad, love your content and u came at the right moment to complement the learning i need, congrats on your new mom 2 be journey 💖
I would echo that you are an inspiration to all and your energy and tips have inspired me to get back to lifting post-surgery. I don't consider myself a beginner but I definitely still find use in all your tips even as just a reminder. I would echo the tip about video'ing yourself. It definitely helps with finding flaws in form and makes it easier to fix.
I can't afford a gym right now and I'm not sure I have room for a barbell in my apartment, but I'm so eager and nervous to pick one up! The heaviest weight I have at home is 25lbs. Thanks for being a badass role model!!♥️♥️♥️💪💪💪
hey meg this might be a silly video idea but I'd love to hear your suggestions on how to pose to show off le muscles 🤣 when I first started I definitely spent too much time on accessories and not enough on compound movements 😬 I'm working with a trainer on the powerlifts right now and I'm loving it
Great tips I’m definitely going to try all of this out ! Also I recently started taking in a bunch of protein and before I knew anything about it I used to think it’ll make me “fat”(ik Dumb) lol but it made me lose weight faster than anything I was doing before cause I was able to lift heavier and last longer lifting weights rather than before were I was avoiding protein and I was basically skinny unable to go harder in the gym Etc 😭
Hi it's great to read this comment because I felt like I was the only one who knew I should get more protein but was still resisting. I finally started getting enough (140+) a few weeks ago and I can feel the difference. I was getting stronger before but now I'm getting stronger and leaner.
Definitely wish I knew this stuff before I started lifting. Plus I think people that want to get toned should be using progressive overload they just don’t know what that is. Loved your eye look and sports bra too- side note :)
Great tips. I am trying to get myself back into the gym. Any tips on how to increase flexibility on the hip hinge? I have extra tight hips and find anything that I have to bend my hips for more then a seat position very difficult.
Hi new subscriber here and I guess beginner as well. I used to lift many years ago and just recently got back into it. Thanks for sharing your tips. I have a question. Can I lift in a fasted state? I've seen arguments for yes and no. Reason being first thing in the morning is the most convenient for me to go to the gym before starting my work day. But I am doing intermittent fasting and don't eat/drink anything before 9am.
I've taken body pump classes at my local YMCA and it's definitely a strength training class. You can progressively overload in those classes if you're consistent. I gained strength taking those classes a few years ago and it made me want to get more into lifting weights. I think it's a great way to get into strength training in a supportive environment. Plus there's an instructor so the program is set for you already and it's a full body workout which is great.
Meg great video you are so helpful and thank you for everything I wanted to ask you can you please upload a video that you wear your clothes that you outgrown by gaining muscle to see how it fits you or if they rip please that would be really helpful
Experts and novices are the same... Improving, reflecting, and educating oneself. Efficiency never reaches a peak. Be easy on oneself and truly enjoy the journey of your "own" transformation .
Hmmm I’m recalling you saying in one of your videos that compound movements aren’t optimal ways to increase strength. Mind you, the focus was on mistakes made in gym for body composition-although debatably still applicable for this video of longterm effectiveness of training, despite *time* being longer with rests and isolating muscles. But overall, still faster in the long run! What do you think, Meg?

Hi it's great to read this comment because I felt like I was the only one who knew I should get more protein but was still resisting. I finally started getting enough (140+) a few weeks ago and I can feel the difference. I was getting stronger before but now I'm getting stronger and leaner.

This is great...your eyes are popping girl🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️

Plus there's an instructor so the program is set for you already and it's a full body workout which is great.

Meg great video you are so helpful and thank you for everything I wanted to ask you can you please upload a video that you wear your clothes that you outgrown by gaining muscle to see how it fits you or if they rip please that would be really helpful
How do you feel about sqauting but with the Smith machine? If I lift otherwise I will ALWAYS feel it in my back

What if you did the same four activities with your "boo?" Dull huh? Change it up.
