You'd be better off show her how to use dumbbells Dokk then jumping right into machines. A lot of people in my experience, especially women are afraid of using free weights. But the issue that I see is they just hop on a machine that says chest exercise and push away when im reality they are barely using any of the intended muscle to do any work and merely just going through the motions. My finacee was guilty of this, until I put her through the ringer which by the way was awful because all week I got to hear crying and boohoooing about being sore lol. But now her progress has improved greatly.
