I'm curious what types of workouts you're doing. If they're that terrible (hot, humiliating and uncomfortable) you would likely benefit from scaling or changing entirely the movements you're doing. I say that knowing full well that the concept of designing a workout can be overwhelming and intimidating. I recommend to friends that are starting a workout routine to first focus on finding something active that they enjoy doing and can keep at it. Rock climbing, running, lifting etc. Don't make it terrible and don't set expectations, just have fun with it. My 2 cents is I love Crossfit. The coach-run sessions are about as close as you can get to a trainer without having to pay for a trainer. Plus the constant variation solved my challenges with "workout design". Anyway, that's what works for me but I believe there's something out there for everybody. Just keep it chill in the beginning and focus more on building a routine than results. 3 days of exercise a week is a win!
