I often can’t do the "beginner exercises" which is really discouraging... like dang if I can’t do the ones made for people who can’t do the rest what am I?? So, is there a training app or website that offers smaller steps to get to your average work out levels?

I feel like you a lot of the time. I’m just very inflexible and unfit. Although I try my best to do the exercises, i get that it can be discouraging, but if you keep persisting you will be able to do it some day. I live in the Netherlands and we have a program on TV that is mostly for elderly but they have really low key exercises that are easy to do and a great help for people like us. Maybe they have it in your country too or you could look up Nederland in beweging. You might not understand it but you could just mimic the exercises. Good luck ❤

Every day I workout by following along with Blogilates videos on Youtube. On her channel, Cassie has several videos posted for beginners just getting started, and a month workout plan for beginners as well. If you go to the Blogilates website you can find this monthly calendar along with other challenges and workouts, recipes, habit trackers, and more. She’s really awesome and I highly recommend checking out her channel and some of her workouts.

What I would recommend is not focus on a program but more so doing something that you like to do. Whatever you decide to do whether its swimming, running, or even just dancing, you will be more inspired to go through the harder things after seeing yourself grow at your main exercise.

There are many resources out there. I am starting over, so I stretch or do modified exercises for 8 minutes. When they get ready, I will go up to 10 or 15. There are Exercise apps for specific needs, beach body is $10/mth right now on Roku. Do what you can, just move, work up from there.

I agree that I never found an app with absolute beginner steps. When I got into exercising, I took circuit training exercises as a group. In there, we all did the same exercises but in different forms. For example, if you can’t do a burpee, just do a squat and then raise your hands at the end instead of the jump. If you can’t do a push-up, do one against a wall and then maybe a table, a chair, etc. if you can’t do jumping lunges, step from one side to the other. The point is to just move, and you will noticeably get stronger and be able to advance. I wish I could offer an app that covers this but I hope you can take any app and listen to your body that if you can’t do that exercise, you can improvise to make it easier and work your way up.

Yoga with Adrienne. She’s amazing and does a good job of taking the stress out of the workout. She has very short videos too. You can start with just 5 or 10 minutes a day. You can also look up very specific routines with her like yoga for chronic pain, for sore back, for acid reflux, for sleep or for relaxation. As long as you don’t find it too embarrassing you could even try chair yoga, which is usually for seniors. You could also just start with a full body streching routine to get your body used to moving again. Actually that might be the best idea. That or dancing. Anyways, good luck! I hope you find something you like!

Hello there, I would recommend downloading beachbody app and restorative exercises to start. Also, a good ol walk will do the job if you can walk 30 mins a day

I don’t know a site, but I would recommend when doing the exercises you mentioned that are too hard for you to schedule in more breaks, for example when the exercise is done during 60 seconds you schedule in a 10 second or 20 second break at 30 seconds and then you pick it up again after. Also you could start doing only half the workout video for example and work your way up. It’s normal when you can’t do the entire workout at the first time or even at the 10th time. You could look for modifications to those specific exercises. And most importantly don’t give up and don’t be disappointed in yourself when you don’t make the entire workout or you didn’t manage doing even half the exercises. Be proud of yourself you stepped on to the mat today and pushed yourself as much as you could. Just keep on trying and you will notice its gonna get easier!

Some times a do my exercises faster and not in the moment that I have, but I do it anyway, andthen that’s matter, do it.

Hello there! I was in the exactly same situation, but actually I’m using the Adidas training app, they gave the membership for free due to lockdown, however their work outs could be longer but you can adjust the intensity and so on, just take your time, hear your body while exercising, sometimes you could not be able to do the entire work out but remember by starting and keep going every day you will be doing more than in the past and little by little build resistance, actually for me the work outs of fabulous seems very simple like my warm up 😁 I’m sure you will be the same
