15y male starting to workout every morning, but I’m overthinking what do to like crazy.
So, I’ve tried researching what to do on my own, but I’m seeing so many different opinions that I don’t know what to do. What I do know is I am trying to do cardio 3 days a week, and strength training the other 3 days (PPL) , with 30 minutes tops for each workout. right now I am doing about 3 sets of 5 different exercises for each workout, but it’s difficult for me to get this in 30 minutes. I want to actually have functional strength since I do some dance and have to lift people. ive heard that calisthenics aligns with my goals, but I’ve also heard that training with weights is superior. I can’t go to a gym (at least until I get a driver’s license) and I have (some) dumbbells and a bench. ive been trying to maximize the routine for a long time but I realize that it might make more sense to do something really simple. I like the idea of doing pushups, and other bodyweight exercises i can do anywhere, but I also like doing curls and I’ve heard I need to do things like squats and benching to gain strength. Ive read so much but I’m still kind of clueless, please help :|
