I realise that unfortunately, at the age of 42, I am not going to be a soccer player or other pro-athlete(!) and I am just looking to get strong and go for GPP (okay and a little bit of vanity - but I do NOT want to be bigger but weak, you might as well wear a muscle suit under your clothes. It's a fraud).
I will add pull-ups when I can afford a freestanding pullup bar. I am aware that I am not going to be leg-strong from bodyweight squats (I will add pistols when strength and hip mobility(?) are up to it) Maybe jump squats, having read in Q & D about how training power also trains strength without the converse being necessarily true.
I aim to do each move to an easy stop for an hour a day (I have a lot of time ATM).
When I get stronger, raised-leg push-ups and one-arm ones will be used.
For an unambitious trainee like me can I get strong like this?
IN this apartment, I dare not use KBs or other weights. In my RoP days I had the bell come flying out my hand on one or 2 occasions, that happens here, it's going through the floorboards!
If you have read this far, thanks for doing so.
