  • I started with just running outside and some workouts to follow along to on YouTube.

    Growingananans channel has some great bodyweight exercises which you can add weights to, and some are with weights as well. There are a lot of others as well. Lots of channels also show modifications for beginners that make the exercises easier until the beginner develops the stamina/muscle to do the harder versions.

    I spent a year and a half using weights and you tube exercise videos when I didn’t have access to a gym. My apartment complex has a gym included in rent now so I may add well get my money’s use out of it, but even then I still use YouTube exercises.

    I also really like Paula B’s exercises even though they’re for older women and I’m not quite there yet. Still her constant movement still gets my heart rate up despite them being more moderate workouts. They’re also easy to modify to more heavy/high intensity by doubleing the speed you do them or adding weights, so she’s great to begin with and even grow with. Grow with Jo (Gro with Jo?) Is also also someone great to begin with and and intensity to when you are ready.
