Don't think of "beginner" as the point from which you started working out... think of it as the point at which you started making logical and legitimate decisions regarding your fitness... not just following some bodybuilding "2 hours to bigger biceps" program

Regardless, most beginner programs simply work no matter where you are. The thing that makes them "beginner" and not "advanced" is simply the specialization and tailoring to YOUR body isn't there. Heck, even most advanced workouts aren't... they are simply "more" not better. The idea there being that the difference between a beginner and an expert is that an expert hits their biceps from 72 different angles, a beginner only does curls. This is retarded and another invention of the bodybuilding world.

What makes a program advanced is that it really zeros in on your own goals and is targeted to bring up your own weaknesses. Unfortunately without having the knowledge of programming that you may (hopefully) learn from a beginner workout, you probably will fail to develop an advanced program on your own. Secondly, an advanced program designed by someone else is simply not going to be as effective. If there is one thing we know from human nature it is that we don't really do our best until we "own" what we are doing. The best way to own a program to develop your body or your strength is to have a hand in it. Someone else handing you your workout isn't ever going to take the place of knowing enough to design your own workout.

How do you learn enough? Learn, read, try, fail, try again, try something else, read something else, listen to someone else... you get the picture.
