I don’t know if these comments help. There’s another thing about getting old and working out (M64). Remember, I’m just working for strength and overall fitness so not bodybuilding and do a daily decently intense 30 minutes always-changing cycle.

As you get older, muscles lose their elasticity. I have a pretty strong core but if I really relax my stomach it pokes out because muscles have stretched. Ironically, that means I always keep my stomach tight, which helps fitness further.

Denial isn't just a river in egypt

Yeah, it’s a vanity thing but I’m not just like sucking it in. I’m tightening the muscles pretty much all the time without really thinking about it at this point. I mean, I do the work but Mother Nature has other plans. Do you blame me?

I thought someone asked if that was my daily check in. You guys are doing much more than me. My home gym is pretty modest:
75 lb sandbag
30 lb sand kettle
17.5 dumbbell
35 dumbbell
25 medicine ball
Pull-up bar
Ab wheel thing where you roll out straight

I do a constant rotation of these hitting different areas to exhaustion (usually daily). Lots of body weight stuff + weights. Lots of things that are combined with pushups (I can do 40+ in good form). A couple days a week I go to a gym to push some bigger weight (but that’s nit the goal) like 400lb legs presses and somewhat heavier dumbbells.

My detached bicep muscle hasn’t seemed to slow me down but I don’t do really heavy bicep weights.

TRX would be a good addition.

Macro tracking & body building experts - what should my macros & calorie count be if I want to lost 10-15 lbs? I'm 142 (due to stress and hormonal changes).

My scale's app says my BMI is 25.3 - just hitting into the overweight bar & 19.8% fat.

Used to be around 23 BMI and 18% fat pre-pandemic in 2019.
