Now donāt fight me but this IS a beginner upper body workout. Developing strength with compound exercises incorporates larger muscle groups and builds overall strength before progressing to body weight exercises.
Use machines and bands starting out. I only started BW exercises within the past 6 months but have used machines and bands my entire fitness journey prior to that. You can always build your way up.
Some other Beginner tips:
1ļøā£Prioritize strength by practicing compound movements like squats and lat pull downs with minimal accessory training for strength imbalances.
2ļøā£Progressive overload is key. Go heavier each week and increase reps or sets to develop strength.
3ļøā£DO NOT EGO LIFT. You have only one body that wonāt ever recover the same way from unnecessary injuries. Do dynamic stretches and warm up weights before working sets.
4ļøā£EAT! Donāt be scared to increase calories for better energy output and to develop muscle. Donāt cut out entire food groups.
