Advice wantedAbsolute beginner, want to get into strength training. Looking for advice
Edit: thanks for the advice everyone! I'm reading though everything you all have posted trying to figure out what works best for me
Like the title says, I'm completely new to any kind of training and I just don't know where to begin. There's a lot to take in and I don't really know how to parse it all. I also don't have access to a gym and don't have the money or space for bulky equipment beyond bare necessities. Any advice or tips to point me in the right direction or beginner friendly YT/blogs would be appreciated! Thanks!
Quick background of stuff that may be relevant, I'm early 30's and have never been particularly active. I don't have a specific goal in mind, I just want to improve my overall health and strength. I'm underweight (so weight loss is not a goal and nutrition tips are also appreciated), have chronic GERD, and mild scoliosis that makes my back relatively inflexible (both of which make bending over difficult)
This is why I despise Ravelry. They’d be the first to proclaim they’re “feminists”, too.
These people are pathetic.
It’s a damn shame because it’s an excellent idea for a website but I can’t bring myself to make an account because of this, and even otherwise a MAN should not be running a site for what is historically a woman’s craft. The glass elevator makes me sick and I do not support men in fiber arts or any other historically women’s art form. FOH scrotes
THIS. The men that are on there (designers and knitters) are absolutely fawned over by many women, too, and they’re first to barge into spaces and self-promote. They make me sick.
Actually, Casey's wife was running the site. He was helping in the background and handled the tech stuff. I loved the site until he transitioned and started going off on people.
