That’s why if you’ve decided to get fit, you can try this 3-month beginner workout plan which is designed primarily for females.

This routine will gradually increase your strength and endurance and scale your fitness to the next level.

You can also make desired changes in the program and adjust it according to your fitness level and goal.

Once you complete the routine, you can follow this push-pull workout for another three months to level up your fitness.

Whichever routine you follow, please consider the following things during the process.

  • Gradually increase the load, reps, and sets to challenge yourself and scale your fitness.
  • Have some pre-workout snacks and drinks 30 minutes to 2 hours before the training, depending on the kind of food you consume.
  • Do not miss consuming high-protein foods and supplements after the workout to recover muscles. I suggest consuming 40-50 grams of protein after training for optimal results.
