First guides being written
We're writing and checking our first guides now. We only publish a guide once its facts have been checked. Until then, our Start Here page covers the basics of your first gym workouts.
What every guide gives you
The answer comes first, in the opening lines.- Plain words. If we use a gym term, we explain it straight away.
- Simple examples you can use at your next workout.
- The sources we used, and the date we last checked the guide.
- Links to a related tool or guide, so you know what to do next.
