I’m learning new work outs and changing things up but I need to push myself more because I’m not getting the soreness I know I should have.

Not an expert like many on here, but when learning a new exercise I would think learning the proper form is more important than getting that expected soreness. Focus on form, build endurance, then worry about really pushing your limits.

In regards to free-weight exercises, there are a large number of apps available that can be great starting points. Just put in workout in your phone app and find ones you're comfortable with.

Also, as others said, work on muscle building and leg exercises. Both will help with boosting metabolism and cutting weight.

Regardless, great job so far. When you plateau, try not to get discouraged and find creative ways to change it up (this board is a great source for that as well)
