Yo FitnessNotion! Biggest beginner mistake? Lifting too heavy, too soon. Focus on form first – I learned the hard way!
Also, don’t skip warm-ups.
What mistakes did you make starting out?

Hey NordicGains! I skipped stretching and pulled a muscle.
Now I warm up.
How long should a warm-up be?

Oof, been there! I overdid burpees and burned out.
How do you know if you’re pushing too hard?

Newbie here! I tried heavy dumbbells and hurt my back.
How do I pick the right weight?
Thanks for this!

Great thread! I used bad form on deadlifts early on. Now I focus on slow reps.
Any form-check apps you recommend?
Also, don’t skip warm-ups.
Now I warm up.
