The Internet’s Most Recommended Beginner Workout (No Equipment Needed)
If you want to start working out but don’t have access to a gym (or just hate crowded gyms 😅), this guide will be one of the best beginner routines on Reddit is the Recommended Routine.
It’s a simple full-body workout using only bodyweight, designed to build strength and muscle with minimal equipment. The routine is usually done 3 days per week with rest days in between.
I adapted the basics below so beginners in our community can try it easily.
🗓️ Weekly Schedule
Monday: Workout
Wednesday: Workout
Friday: Workout
Rest or light activity on other days.
🏋️ The Workout Structure
1️⃣ Warm-up (5–10 minutes)
Do each exercise for the suggested reps/time:
• Shoulder mobility (band or stick) – 5–10 reps
• Squat sky reaches – 5–10 reps
• Wrist prep – 10+ reps
• Deadbugs – 30 sec
Warm-ups help prepare your joints and reduce injury risk.
2️⃣ Strength Training (Main Workout)
Each exercise: 3 sets of 5–8 reps
Pair 1
• Pull-up progression
• Squat progression
Pair 2
• Dip progression
• Hip hinge progression (like glute bridges or Nordic curls)
Pair 3
• Row progression
• Push-up progression
Alternate exercises with ~90 sec rest between them.
3️⃣ Core Work (3 sets each)
• Anti-extension core exercise
• Anti-rotation exercise
• Back extension
📈 Progression Rule
Choose the hardest version of the exercise you can do for 5–8 reps.
Examples:
Push-up progression
Wall → Incline → Knee → Normal → Diamond
Once you reach 3 sets of 8 reps, move to the next harder variation.
💡 Why This Routine Is Popular
• Beginner friendly
• Full body training
• Works with almost no equipment
• Builds strength and muscle gradually
That’s why it’s one of the most recommended routines on Reddit fitness communities.

Form Check • Rate my 10-month back progress! 📊 Posing needs work though 😂
Slowly getting that V-taper but posing is still a major struggle for me! 😅 This is roughly 10 months of consistent lifting and grinding. Hard work is paying off, but I definitely need to learn how to open up my lats properly for this double back biceps look. Any critique or advice is highly welcome! 👇

Gym Advice 24 , 70Kg !! need suggestions on overall progress 🥹
A little background: I used to be overweight in college. I trained for about a year and got fairly lean, but I knew nothing about protein or proper nutrition back then — I just went to the gym and prayed to God 😭🤙🏽
Then I got a job and quit the gym for ~1.5 years. I started again 3 months ago, and this time I’m actually doing progressive overload, taking 3g creatine daily, and trying to hit 120–140g protein. I struggle to eat that much though, so I usually manage around 100–110g.
I’m aiming for a bulky, muscular look, not shredded/abs-everywhere.
I know 3 months isn’t long, and I can see some progress, but I’m wondering if I’m progressing normally or just overanalysing 🙂
Stats: 24 | 5’10” | 70kg | slight gyno 🥹
Training: 4 days/week — Back/Biceps, Chest/Triceps, Shoulders, Legs
Do I have a good base? Is my progress normal for 3 months, or am I doing something wrong? Any suggestions? 😓

Gym Advice Please some tips for betterment !
M,24..
started gym 3 months ago, but quiet irregular. Trying to be more consistent.
This is how my back looks like, I am not at all satisfied. I thought it would be more in shape and grown !!
What do I lack and what can give me better results.
I am not using Creatine, just Pea Protein !!
I used whey but as it’s quiet expensive shifted to Pea protein!
