I’ve been working out for about two months now, so far I’ve only used some weight machines chest press, pec fly etc. Just looking for some advice on where/how to begin with free weights.
well you right now have like 0 stabilizer muscles seeing how the machines limit movement. so you shouldn’t do as high weight as you should but should still only be able to do 15 reps for the first week or so. after that those stabilizers should have caught up some so you can start going heavy again. flys are pretty much the same motion. im sure you’ve seen someone doing them. you’ve probably seen these exercises done in the gym with bad form.. so i’ll show you good form
look at this guys form youtube.com/scooby1961

Start with dumbells for upper body, bench press, military press, flys, curls, etc. Gradually start introducing barbell excercises. Best of luck!
