Jules Benson & Phil Ross – Absolute Beginners Fitness: Weight Training

This is a description.

Basics

Weight training is an introduction to full body weight training for the beginning exerciser. There are three training types in this workout: singular exercise focus, superset and triple sets, and circuit training. Jules and Phil Ross explain and demonstrate each exercise to help beginners learn safe and proper form for weight training.

Light weights, medium weights, and heavy weights are required.

Details

Jules and Phil Ross teach beginning exercisers through multiple weight training exercises that target the whole body. One instructor explains the exercises while the other shows them. The pacing is designed for beginners with instructions to rest as needed and to blend proper breathing into each exercise. There are three workout segments. 30 second breaks between each exercise are given in the single exercise focus segment, which targets one muscle movement at a time. The superset and triple sets segment combines previously filmed portions of the singular exercise focus into double and triple sets of exercises that focus on legs, chest and back, shoulders, biceps/triceps, and abdominal and core work. The circuit training segment combines previously filmed segments from the single exercise focus with only one set of each exercise all the way through, from legs to core work, and is followed by a repeat of that entire set. The warm-up and cool down are the same for each segment.

The pacing is slow enough for beginners to recover. Both instructors demonstrate stretching between exercises. The three workout variations, singular exercise focus, superset and triple sets, and circuit training give beginners options for choosing a solid exercise experience.
