    The best way to get someone interested in exercise is to have them find something fun they enjoy doing. Even zumba isn't the most efficient exercise, if that is what gets her to move on a regular...

    Depends what you train for. The cheapest solution is wrap/tape some towels around the bar. Fat grips are convenient since you can easily bring them from bar to bar or keep them in your bag and...

    Most beginner programs have you benching and squatting 2-3 times a week so do a bit more research. As a beginner you don't nit pick body parts, you just need to get stronger and bigger learning...
