Newbie here. . .assuming we properly classify previous attempts in my youth as examples of poor form, insufficient diet, lack of knowledge, etc. (I will blame it on herd mentality 😠)
Some basic core stretching exercises a few months back led to some dumbbells, weight bench/basic set of weights, and so on. My trying to do things correctly has certainly paid off so far, and that is why I kept coming back here.
It appears many of the workout routines on this site are geared for people at/with pro gym equipment. I am not ruling that out down the line, but I wonder how well I can suffice with what I have?
If I outgrow the stuff, GREAT. But, I am not running out just yet. And it isn’t so much the cost, but I do like the convenience of having the stuff in my basement.
