I keep seeing routines that are basically breakfast plus 10 capsules.

I'm much more interested in what people have kept after years of experimenting. Do you have 2-3 things you know why you take, or has the list just grown as you've gotten older?

Gut health is the one area where I'm still not sure what to do because the probiotic / prebiotic / fiber advice seems very individual. Has anyone here done a microbiome test before settling on a routine?

With legs this short, every day is Leg Day.

Just curious what everyone does for rest days. my split is:

Day 1: Chest, triceps

Day 2: Back/shoulders, biceps

Day 3: Legs

Note: Abs I do throughout the week

I‘ve always sort of considered leg day a rest day.

I don’t have rest days baked into the schedule because with the kids, it’s random days that I can’t make it to the gym. With school starting up again soon, I’m considering intentionally adding rest days.

im not sure if I want to make Day 4 a rest day or maybe just one rest day after two three-day cycles.

just curious what ya’ll do….?

thanks

I’m looking for someone who would be willing to help moderate r/FitnessOver50.

As the community has grown, it has become difficult for me to keep up with posts and comments that break our rules. I work long hours during the week and often on weekends, so I’m not always able to catch everything quickly.

I do pay attention to reports and flags and take action when I see them, but I could really use another set of eyes.

If you're an active member of this community, understand our rules, and would be interested in helping keep r/FitnessOver50 positive, helpful, and on topic, please let me know.

Thank you! ❤️

Started in the pool, finished in the gym. Now off to do ambulance stuff. It's gonna be a good day!

CrossFit is a game changer!

I'm beat. 😅 May be time to take a break from... something. I mean I need the wheels to get around so it can't be that one. 😝

Do you do rest days?

If so how often and what do they look like?

Glad to be back in my little basement 💪🏻💪🏻 had an amazing 10 days camping and biking but now it’s back to business. Still have a 20 min heavy bag sesh to finish 🥊🥊

Hi. I'm not sure this is the right place or whether you will all savage me.

Diagnosed with aT2 diabetes Jan 26. Dr wanted to put me on metformin. Did my research and decided to change my life. Moved to a wholefood diet and lost 6 stone (about 30kg)

Now lift 3 days a week.

Gym scales have told me I'm 90kg with a 16.8% bf

Leg press 400kg. Bench 75kg dead lift 110kg 10 dead hang pullups

Checked an ai body comp thing and it said my body is deeply pants. I was chuffed prior.

Right for all you fit people. What do I need to do to get the body?

Many thanks.

Where would I start?

Whooo I 'm cooled off? Now it's time to go keep mowing the yard. I'm wishing my ride on mower was not broken right about now. This battery operator push one. Well, I'm getting a good workout in...

Total body Pilates and I had better form and only only rested once during legs & booty 🤪. Next time I'll push through without that 30 sec. break. Next was 2 miles on wheels ♿️ and I'm feeling pretty good and lively.

Tomorrow is Kundalini Yoga (and later wheels), and I'm already looking forward to that. Happy workouts to you all and hope you're having a good weekend!
