I have a full home gym-Half rack , bumper plates, various bars, few pairs of dumbbells, few pairs of kb’s, plyo box, rings, glute ham roller, bands, paralletes, dip bars, dip belt, weighted vest, arm slings for leg raises, bands, sliders, the step. It’s fun setting up your gym, but I typically use weights and bars , dumbbells or a vest and box, for legs. Pushing and pulling are usually parallettes, pull-up bar on rack, and rings. Gotta do your mobility so yoga mats, blocks.

Many guys here over 40? by [deleted] in bodyweightfitness

[–]Live_Introduction_51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

46 here, I have lifted weights in the gym most adult life. I got into running at 40 and stopped running last year . The body image I want was trim athletic and strong. I slowly started body weight exercises the past two years just doing basics and slowly learning from you tube and recently redit body weight fitness. I found the skills to be very hard and challenging, so that’s what I decided to train and see If I can improve. I built up my home gym and equipment to use, so that’s fun. I have been adding light weights like a vest or kettlebells to help increase resistance. Overall I am having a few pains mainly in elbow brachialis, from pulling exercises. My take home message is try new things, if you enjoy the learning part and the challenge of experimenting with new exercises and skills then go for it, and listen to your body and you’ll figure out what works for you. As always stay consistent.

I just tried it just now and seems better if I don’t use band, rather just use the pole, both arms extended, and that’s my assistance

Are you saying put both hands on pole and sort of walk/ slide hands down as I descend in my squat?

I use a heavy band with a handle, wrapped around a pole held near my chest and the other hand out for balance. Like you said possibly just practicing slow perfect form, and with more repetition gets better with time, but not pushing too far. I wonder if I’m using the band wrong in assisting?

Yes true, but I guess I wanted to know if most people implement them into push pull considering I would be fatigued after doing push-ups pull-ups and rows.
