I have some back exercises that I do every day. I've also been doing a brisk walk outdoors of 3 to 4 miles (sometimes more) every day. There are lots of people on the trails, but everybody is good about keeping some distance.

I don't really enjoy walking much, but I've found it to be the best exercise to get in shape for pedaling my Hobie, so I'm trying hard to learn to love it...
I don't like stuff that sucks.

Gym is now at home

Power rack, barbell, bench, 400lb+ in plates, Concept2 rower.

A day: row warmup, Squat, Bench Press, Deadlift, row warm down
B day: row warmup, Squat, Press, Chin-up, row warm down

Alternate between A and B workouts M,W,F

Just got restarted Squat and BP two weeks ago, after a long hiatus. Press and Deadlift about a month ago.  Currently in a linear progression program.

Last numbers were:

Squat 155 3x5
BP 125 3x5
Press 80 3x5
Deadlift 285 1x5

Deadlifth and Squats go up by 10 a workout
BP and press by 2.5 a workout.

As I'm a well-aged geezer, will likely need to go to what would be an intermediate type program pretty soon for at least some of the lifts. There's not a whole lot of linear novice gain to be had at age 60.

Would be nice to be at 275 3x5 for Squat, 375 1x5 Deadlift, 175 3x5 BP and maybe 125 3x5 Press by end of the year. We'll just have to see what happens.  I was at about 80-85% of those numbers at age 57 after just 6 months of training.

1-2 SIT sessions per week on rower as well.  Resting pulse after a month is dropping from mid 60s to upper 50s. Still weigh the same too damned much though.
