The workout routine posted below is reminiscent to other workouts we give our personal new clients who have never exercised before. This routine below is a circuit, which means each exercises should be done one after another with no rest in between (unless instructed to). Once you complete one cycle then you are allowed to rest for a specific amount of time. The workout will be complete after you've done 5 cycles. This routine is intended for able bodied people who can jump, and squat without any pain. (If you're experiencing any pain, we recommend you speak with a reputable trainer or physical therapist in person)

And there you have it, thats the GYMCADDY’s Team recommended workout for beginners. It may look simple, but theres a lot going on. We are working on your cardio by jumping rope, and doing step ups. We are working on your strength, coordination and proper form by doing push ups, and TRX rows. We’re developing your balance by doing Lunges, and were promoting good posture through the Cobra exercise. If you do this circuit the prescribed 5 times, you will end up with a full body workout and drenched in sweat. We recommend you do this circuit 3 - 4 times a week until this routine becomes super easy for you. Once you can do the routine easily we would like you to double all of the repetitions and continue doing the same circuit 3-4 times a week until its easy again. Once you've reached you first goal you'll be ready to start doing more advanced exercises properly and safely. Also, it be very beneficial to supplement this circuit with a little cardio.
