Beginner Core Muscle Training
Beginner core muscle training should consist of some basic but core movements which not only will result in future growth, but you should see results in the short term as well.
Bench Press.
Benching will work not only your chest muscles, but will activate your shoulder muscles and your triceps as well. This is a good movement for beginners as it teaches you balance and focus. You should focus on using your pectorals (chest muscles) to press the weight up. Your shoulders and triceps will naturally come into play. Beginner core muscle training should also consist of balance training. That is being able to control the weight evenly throughout the movement. Bench press is a good movement to learn balance and control.
Leg Press.
While the squat is said to be the king of exercises, not only building you bigger legs, but also contributing to overall muscle growth, the leg press is a good movement for beginners to start out with, and then they can switch over or include the squat in their workouts later on. The leg press is done on a machine and is very easy to learn. You'll be working mainly the front muscles of the legs/thighs. You should feel the muscle working right away, and will probably get some good results your first month developing muscular legs.
Bicep Curl.
I include the bicep curl as a beginner core muscle training exercise because most beginners want to see some results which will motivate them greatly to stick with muscle building. One of the easiest and most pleasing results to see is bigger biceps. Bicep curls can be performed by doing straight barbell curls or single alternating dumbbell curls. Either way you will feel your biceps being worked and soon experience the visual benefits from lifting weights.
Beginners are encouraged to invest in a good muscle building program so they can see results very quickly and make sure they are performing the exercises properly.
