Suddenly found that my legs are stronger. I was doing 3 sets of 50kg leg presses at the gym, and it felt very easy. So, I did 5 sets of the same weight.

Would it be better to increase the weight and stick to the 3 sets? #Gym #LegPress #Wellbeing

🧐 Did you know that after 50, slowing down muscle loss is about building functional strength and dynamic balance?

🗣️ Incorporating non-traditional movements like the Half-Kneeling Unilateral Lift & Press helps manage sarcopenia (age-related muscle decline) by engaging stabilizer muscles traditional lifts miss.

Key benefits:
✅ Enhances deep core and hip stability
✅ Protects the spine while handling asymmetrical weight

💪🏾 There are many variations to accommodate all ages and abilities.

Morning! Afternoon off today so at my desk, squeezing in a few things before lunch!

Off to the gym for a family workout session later though... which will be awesome. Increased the weight on the sled for myself last week, really finding it a great workout for my knees lol.

In meiner Fitness-Kolumne "Der Quälgeist" stelle ich ein kompaktes Grundlagenprogramm für den Oberkörper vor, das Kraft & Ausdauer kombiniert und nur mit Kurzhanteln sowie einer Hantelbank, ohne Geräte-Hopping, in einer Stunde im Gym durchgeführt werden kann: "Originell ist das Programm nicht – im Gegenteil: Es besteht fast ausschliesslich aus klassischen Übungen. Diese haben jedoch einen Vorteil: Sie sind Klassiker, weil sie leisten, was sie versprechen. Im Geflirre ständig wechselnder Trainingshypes tut es gut, sich hin und wieder auf die Grundlagen zu besinnen."

Harry Gelbfarb gründet in Schweinfurt 1956 das erste Bodybuilding-Studio.
10 Mark pro Monat kostet eine Mitgliedschaft, was damals ziemlich viel war: Etwa 10 Prozent eines damaligen Lehrlingsgehalts. Finanziell läufts trotz seiner Idee nicht richtig rund für Harry.
Aber: 1961 kann er trotzdem ein weiteres Studio in Nürnberg gründen. Der richtige Gym-Hype beginnt aber erst mit Arnold Schwarzenegger in den 1960ern.

I use GymRoutines from F-Droid repo to log my exercise sessions. Very configurable, no tracking.

I generally don't post a lot of #fitness stuff, but I can start posting more. #Gym time is usually free weights and some calisthenics for me.

Home workouts for me are difficult. My apartment has issues with heating in the winter, and cooling in the summer. I can go outside to workout in the summer, but it usually isn't a first choice, especially for ground calisthenics.

My introduction to "working out" was martial arts, and I've always preferred activities (move a wood pile, carry a fridge up some stairs, etc) over logged gym time. It took me a couple of years to get used to going to a gym to lift. If I had to do a routine at home again, it would probably be a mix of kettle bell, club (adjustable weight) and mace (adjustable weight). If I couldn't find the last two, I would get a cut piece of metal bar and do staff exercises again. Another option, depending on your fitness level, is finding a local #climbing gym and try out basic indoor bouldering.

Most of my issues with lifting have come from pushing myself too fast. I'll start a routine, tell myself I can do more, and then I've strained something without realizing it. I'm one of those people who absolutely can not "find out their max lift", because I would tear something every time and then be 8 weeks in recovery (or longer).

🧐 Re-Think Your Push-Up: Strength. Stability. Joints.

Demonstrated by one of my rockstar online fitness clients! ⭐️

🗣️Introducing an unstable surface elevates a standard push-up into a total-body motor control exercise.

✔️ Higher muscle recruitment
✔️ Deep core & wrist activation
✔️ Movement synced w/ Breath Control

Scalable for ALL fitness levels:
🔹 Wall Support: Place the ball against a wall to adjust leverage.
🔹 High Plank Hold: Hold for time on the ball with scapular retractions to build upper back control first.

Let’s get after it!💪🏾
