Super User A-Jay Posted December 10, 2024 Author Super User Posted December 10, 2024 Completed Workout Day 5 here. I'm just humming along right now. Eat, Sleep , Train, Off Day; Rinse & Repeat. I like it ! #borninfiftynine A-Jay 1 Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted December 12, 2024 Author Super User Posted December 12, 2024 Workout Day 1 on this very snowy Thursday. As a friendly reminder and unless otherwise noted, these clips usually only include working sets: which are my heaviest sets (relative term). Which means before what is seen here, I have already done AT Least one warm up sets of each movement. (More when performing heavy compound movements) Those are always done with light then progressively heavier weight and higher reps. Super important IMO to get some blood flowing through the area I am targeting. Especially being a Senior Citizen and all. #borninfiftynine A-Jay 1 Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted December 15, 2024 Author Super User Posted December 15, 2024 After my scheduled Off Day was spent relocating a couple metric tons of wet snow, I took a maintenance day yesterday. Back in the gym today for Workout Day 2. Went OK but I was feeling my age a bit in this one. Have to expect that, but I don't have to like it. #borninfiftynine A-Jay 1 Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted December 17, 2024 Author Super User Posted December 17, 2024 Going into Workout Day 3 I felt like I was ready. Tried to take advantage of it best I could. Rack Pulls for reps always gets my attention. #borninfiftynine A-Jay 3 Quote

Super User Jigfishn10 Posted December 21, 2024 Super User Posted December 21, 2024 Been pretty consistent these past 2-3 months - thankfully. Feeling better than I have felt physically in a while. Looking forward to the new year with a new routine and a much dialed in nutrition plan. Good luck to you in ‘25. Stay healthy and happy. John 1 Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted December 21, 2024 Author Super User Posted December 21, 2024 Workout Day 5 for me on this one. Seemed like I had good energy and tried to keep time between sets down a bit. So as soon as I was recovered and ready, I'd hammer out the next set. Adds some intensity to the training, without adding resistance. Like most winter months, I'm working on progressively getting a little stronger each workout. But us Senior citizens need to take it slow. #borninfiftynine A-Jay 2 Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted December 23, 2024 Author Super User Posted December 23, 2024 Workout Day 1 to start the week. After sufficient warm-up, I completed 3 working sets of the 5 scheduled movements. Showing the last 2 set of each in this one. #borninfiftynine A-Jay 1 Quote

Not certain this is The exact unit. But if it's not it's pretty darn close. The knurl on the grip is a little aggressive and was ripping me up. So I taped over it. https://www.amazon.com/Yuhqc-Multi-Exerciser-Attachment-Handgrips-Revolving/dp/B07DBBFZGV/ref=sr_1_9?dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.h-qdl8gKStJFHK7zLlvCEPdhMI8TxR-RcwU5vLrZw4AVMaQpQPcgyTwnTmaGSD0SjrpUMWwxbZ_ejHGO2r99l3KsU0GOaWkCuE0Zbep5FxpHS6TAyE2_b9itizxj5fSt4mj5wrJ7I74IiZ-jw8veQJ0gSjCHZ-zs1Xre2DGpcwVUNdt30RW1-2TF92DyngcU2qq8pkbWWpcg0JR1LrjvQHjUHPJtjfRMw8Qim8K_oCQopMPFh9WoCs6DtbPFpnj4Afw1Q1e2URH-qQrNWuLpmYrHkiGnuEcQ8KCx1MVkCT9gjgZEwSkhX70v0sxi3-RuDdnpVZSEw7sXFnCz8dunuegeUoBJEkdGZ4EH2_54edQ9qbAjkrdt3QNWa0klkRXfNOkYYzFSv-CIxMff5hnwTHHr6WFxjqW3RjoBa0jeFaA0QaOGrd9qTftsQ3JX2ENS.yI1rR9RgDd7f3_tU_S4Mne21GeswR3FpuSzlrWvcxp8&dib_tag=se&keywords=cable%2Brow%2Bbar&qid=1734992805&sr=8-9&th=1 A-Jay 1 Quote
FishTax Posted December 24, 2024 Posted December 24, 2024 @A-Jay you are an inspiration. I'm stepping up my game starting today with a focus on mobility and longevity, but hopefully getting a little jacked too. Having back arthritis in my 30s is frustrating but maintaining good health is probably the best way to manage it long term. 2 Quote

Staying in shape as I get older may be less about adding years to my life and more about adding life to my years. Every day we have an opportunity to improve. Good Luck moving forward. A-Jay 1 Quote

Super User A-Jay Posted December 30, 2024 Author Super User Posted December 30, 2024 Finished 2024 off with Workout Day 4. Despite a number of distractions and personal challenges, I completed 156 workouts this year. Tried my best to make every one count. Moving forward to next year, since this is going well, the only deal I plan on changing, is to get a little leaner towards April & May. This thread just went over 83K views, pretty wild. #borninfiftynine A-Jay 1 Quote

Super User A-Jay Posted December 31, 2024 Author Super User Posted December 31, 2024 2024 Workout year in review ~ This one was a big time challenge for 12 straight months pretty much. Ended up going another 12 rounds with Covid while my wife was really hurting and needed 6 weeks of hospitalization 5 hours away. Once she was finally home, scheduling my training around her much needed and frequent treatments was tricky. As was keeping my head in the game so I could train at all. Completing one more workout for this year than last, shows me something I wasn't sure I had in me. Either way, plan is to keep grinding away. It never gets any easier and that's what keeps bringing me back. It's New Years Resolution time . . . I say make at least one. Don't wait until you're 65 like me . . . . . . A-Jay 1 Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted January 1 Author Super User Posted January 1 Started the new year off the way I've started the previous 46. Workout Day 5 this time. Staying on track with everything needed when I'm NOT in the gym, seems to get more and more important the further down the road I get. #borninfiftynine A-Jay 1 Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted January 4 Author Super User Posted January 4 Workout Day 1 and it had to be a late afternoon affair, not my favorite. I sucked it up and blasted through this one best I could. Pretty sure there will be some residual effects for the next day or so. But I wouldn't have it any other way. #borninfiftynine A-Jay 1 Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted January 5 Author Super User Posted January 5 Workout Day 2 on this frigid Sunday in the north woods. Completed 3 working sets of the 4 movements scheduled today. Nothing fancy, just doing the work. #borninfiftynine A-Jay 1 Quote
