    I do push day, pull day, leg day. It’s a common split you could look up a bunch of different workouts. Just search for ppl split workout. It’s nice because even if you go to the gym every day (I’m not advocating that, you need rest) your muscle groups get two days of rest before you work them again.

    If you’re new and intimidated by some of the exercises, just find a machine that works the same muscles or does a similar motion. It’s not perfect but it gets the job done. I watched a ton of YouTube videos on how to do exercises when I started. And if you don’t like an exercise, don’t do it. Find another one that works the same muscles that is enjoyable. For instance… Most programs suggest doing “skull crushers” for triceps workout. I hate them. They don’t feel right and the name annoys me. I do overhead triceps extensions on a cable machine instead and they feel so much better to me. I enjoy doing them instead of dreading

    Good luck!

    don’t think I’d recommend blender to a newbie. It’s more involved and really takes time to learn. Similar for free CAD. I love the idea but it’s really clunky to use.

    The best (imo) modeling software has a simple workflow with easy to find tools. Create a sketch, extrude that sketch, then do it again if needed, add holes etc…
