Hi, I'm Aya (aka Fitaya) 👋

I started lifting four months ago with zero experience and a lot of gym anxiety. This guide is what I wish existed on day one — no hard techniques, no overwhelm, just the real basics explained simply.

I'm not a certified trainer. I'm someone who's still very much in it, figuring it out one workout at a time — and sharing what I've learned along the way so you don't have to start as lost as I did.

Come say hi on Instagram/TikTok/Pinterest @fitaya_2026 , I'd love to hear if this helped you start.
