I've resumed strength training after nearly a decade. Any tips on the do's and don'ts?

@Unlearn Lol, no, I'm old, I'm not impressing anyone. I do it for my health and I admit to some extent my vanity. I have been doing exercise and strength training most of my life and it bugs me when I get too out of shape.

@JimboSaturn I guessed as much 🙂

@JimboSaturn The same with me. At age 59 now and still doing more on my farm than most Healthy 20 years old is my pride. Especially after my 27-year career in the Army doing more than anyone would want to or could imagine doing.

This Summer I busted up concrete and brick with an 8-pound sledgehammer at a construction site and brought home 110 hand loaded loads of concrete and unloaded it by hand into washed out logging roads on my farm using my F-150 pick up. Each load was well over 1000 pounds totaling well over 55 tons of concrete all busted up and moved by hand in 90-degree temps.

I quit the weight training and do farm projects like this for myself and push mow 5 acres up and down hill too.

@Unlearn I want to do something similar too...:)

@being Do it! It’s worth it. I’m back to feeling my biceps and shoulders every few minutes, just like I did in my teens.

@Unlearn I will but not just now..
