Training Basics Guide

Please note - This guide is also available in a value bundle with my Peri-Workout Nutrition Guide to help you maximise your results in the gym through your nutrition...check it out here!

Training is a structured process designed to improve physical fitness, strength, endurance, and overall health. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced athlete, understanding the fundamentals of training can help you achieve your fitness goals effectively and safely.

The number of elements used in strength training can be particularly overwhelming for beginners. This guide is here to provide you with a comprehensive understanding of program fundamentals, a glossary of training terms, and an exercise directory by muscle group to help you navigate and optimise your training routine.

IMPORTANT - Please note that this is NOT a full training program, it is an educational guide to help you understand basic fundamentals and terms used with a focus on resistance training.

What you will receive in your Training Basics guide:

• Chapter 1 - Benefits of Exercise
• Chapter 2 - Types of Exercise
• Chapter 3 - Program Fundamentals (including example training splits, warm up and cool down)
• Chapter 4 - Glossary of Terms (general training terms as well as programming terms, biomechanics terms, and grip types)
• Chapter 5 - Exercise Directory (a comprehensive list of exercises by muscle group, including back, shoulders, chest, abdominals, glutes, quads, hamstrings, calves, biceps, triceps)
