How to Use Gym Equipment | Beginner's Guide

Want to reach your goals faster??
Apply to my 1:1 coaching and let's work together to take your fitness journey to the next level!

Hello, my loves!
Going to the gym can already be hard enough itself, nevertheless learning how to use any of the equipment! Therefore, I've compiled a video of some basic gym equipment most gyms should have.
Know that many machines operate similarly (as you'll see in the video), so even though I'm not covering all the machines in the entire world, you should be able to successfully work most machines using these same methods.
Always be sure to refer back to the instructions on the machine if you need help and never ever be afraid to ask someone for assistance!
Let's go chase those gainzzzzzz, babesssss.

cant even begin to tell you how much gym anxiety i had because i didnt wanna look like an idiot not knowing how to adjust the equipment and such. thank you for this!

Good luck to everyone going to the gym for the first time, remember we all started where you are 👍

Gyms should start offering tutorials on how to use their machines when you first get a membership to cut out the embarrassment and anxiety of asking for help. It would save people a lot of trouble

Me a confused baby Yoda at the gym: pretends I’m catching my breath and scrolling through my Spotify playlist while actually googling how to use machines

[orangeaid]

i go to the gym like wheres the treadmill"

[Misoill]

LMFAO this was me til I registered how much I was paying monthly for my membership. Then I grabbed a employee and made them explain how to use every machine I wanted to use 😁.

[zoe._.]

I can not tell you how much I appreciate this. I love working out and I love the gym but my fear of looking like an absolute idiot on the machines and my anxiety has always deterred me from trying out different things or just being fully in the workout and enjoying it. This has honestly gave me sooo much more confidence so a massive thank you!! ☺️💛

I’ve always been nervous to go to the gym, but recently my husband and I started going together. That helped, but both of us have been intimated by not knowing how to use a lot of the machines, but I’ve gotten tired of worrying what others think of me! I’m doing this for my health, and I won’t let anyone stop me from doing what I need to do to get in shape and feel good!

[SharksRule]

One of the biggest things that has prevented me from seeing the effects of working out is my hesitance to do anything beyond cardio out of fear of looking stupid. So thank you for this video. I appreciate it.

[copypaste]

Bro they should implement some classes at every gym that teach you how to use each machine, this looks so complicated lmao

[kaitlynkho]

Can you do workouts for beginners at the gym? (Like legs, arms, chest, etc.?)

[sapsoup]

Sometimes other gym goers can be really helpful when you’re struggling, ik I’ve had people try to help me adjust the seats or settings. People at the gym usually look more intimidating than they actually are.

[caseywhitehead]

Naomi, that was a very sweet thing you did for so many people out there with that fear. It was very informative too. Everyone is trying to get gains, and you just inspired a lot of people to take the leap, and do it. Great job.

[wang.baifeng]

When explaining the machines, she sounded like a flight attendant 😂

[jumanji.]

Lol Im in the gym and I sat on the inner thigh outer thigh thing and I didn’t know how to use it so I ran to the locker room and started searching so I could go back and do it correctly😭😂. This video is very helpful thank u♥️

[teresalandhamilton]

This may seem like the most common sense I used to be soooo scared to get on machines bc they looked so intimidating!! I also wasted a lot of time on the treadmill bc i was such a chicken and i wish I would’ve watched this video a long time ago lol!!! Thank you!

[mintyjamez]

I'm 29 and just got a gym membership for the first time. I have pretty terrible social anxiety, like most people anymore, and even worse body image/self confidence. Gyms are not my thing. I don't understand any of the machines and have no idea what I'm doing. If it wasn't for the fact I'm locked into a three month membership I would've quit the first day honestly. But I just finished my first week today and having your videos feels like I'm taking a friend with me. Thanks for these. They make me feel a little bit less stressed every time I go in. Good luck everybody!

[RapunzelASMR]

I relate haha. I am going to the gym and the first times I just feel so awkward XD But honestly I rather ask someone than just fumble like an idiot. if I would not be able to figure it out I would ask someone near me and stop the embarassment. No way I am going to feel like that haha
