Your First Month at the Gym
Chapters 2 and 5 (sample): losing the fear and the hip thrust
Go at quiet times
Mid-morning or early afternoon is usually quieter. Ask at reception when it is least busy.
Ask the staff
That is what instructors are there for. Asking how to set up a machine is completely normal.
The hip thrust
Upper back on a bench, feet planted and weight on your hips. Drive your hips up squeezing your glutes until your body is straight from shoulders to knees. Pause for a second at the top without arching your lower back.
The sample stops here. The full chapter and the rest of the guide are in the paid version.
