The basic program is built around four lifts: the bench press, squat, deadlift and overhead press — supplemented with cardio. And while the program provides extensive adjustments for older bodies, it focuses on relatively high weight, low repetitions and progressive overload, or structuring a training plan to consistently add difficulty.

Marking time.
Off to pedal my way to nowhere. Seems somehow fitting, a ride with no destination but a sweaty 40 minute commute.
You can't outrun a bad diet. Food — not lack of exercise — fuels obesity, study finds.

Can we please stop making these unhelpful pseudoprecise claims? We know that exercise is healthy and that the more is the better up to a point. However, there is no magic number that sorts out all problems. We need to appreciate the limits of what we can know. #exercise #health #lifestyle #science #epistemology

Good morning tooters. It’s a fairly mild morning, a little cool at around 5c & we’re only heading to 11c today with more rain forecast.
If I want to go for a walk, which I do, I need to get organised & head away soon. Everything is quite drippy & wet out so it will just be one of the shorter walks but I really want to have a good walk especially as my back is a little sore.
Heading to Melbourne tomorrow for 3 days, home Sunday with my NZ friend & while I’m looking forward to catching up with her, I’m not sure I’m actually looking forward to the stay. I’m not sure where I’m sleeping as there is just one spare bed, so I’m taking a sleeping bag & I may well be on the couch
- what fun - NOT - I’m getting too old
.
Anyway, time to get showered & dressed & off for my walk. Have a wonderful #Wednesday & stay warm out there, I hope you all have sunshine . #Weather #Winter #Exercise #Melbourne #Friends
Dumbbell Sumo Squats
Stand with your feet wider than shoulder-width apart.
Point your toes slightly outward (~30–45° angle). This helps open up the hips.
Brace your abdominal muscles as if preparing to take a punch.
Keep your chest tall and shoulders down and back.
