Like others have said, you are never too old. I started just over a year ago at age 38 and have made some pretty good gains over the last year and a bit - even with lockdown! For me it was a complete...
My suggestion would be to focus on nutrition and cardio. Remember that 90% of the results you achieve come outside of the gym anyway and to start with focusing on just low impact cardio is probably...
Your commitment here is inspiring. I am following a similar routine as you but reading your journal has given me a few new ideas. Thanks for taking the time to do this!
Welcome. I'd say stop looking at things as diet or lifestyle and make a nutritional plan that fits in to a lifestyle you are happy to continue with for many years. If it is unsustainable for more...
It's all about making it sustainable in my opinion. If you are going to enjoy 3 days of boxing and 2 days of lifting then go for it. Definitely better than nothing. I'd suggest finding a nutritional...
For me this is all about mindset and habit. I think you need to understand that this is going to take time and that this is a combination of long term good nutrition (definitely not a diet) and then...
If the closet every suffers from damp that could be your issue. I'd suggest finding a different place to store it and maybe dispense it in to a plastic container unless it's already in one of course.

For that price I'd just get them and worry about the logistics later - sure you'll find a use for the 10kg plates somewhere. Wish I could get them for that price!
If Creatine and testosterone levels are higher first thing in the morning is there any added benefit to working out first thing in the morning? I generally workout at around 7am but not sure if this...
Good luck all - 2020 has been great for me so far in terms of motivation. I started back at the gym in July 2019 and its all about routine and forming a habit for me. So far so good!
To follow up - I am generally now evening out at around 160g to 170g of protein per day. Also taking 4g of creatine per day - I am seeing gains gradually which I guess is the best way to do it.
As a newbie, I found this useful for finding equipment that I can use at home. But the more I do the more I want to convert that garage in to a home gym :-)
I weigh about 78kg and am managing to get around 170g of protein per day - one scoop of whey with breakfast and two in my protein shakes are my supplemented protein. I generally have these in the...
