Push ups/Press ups

After those 25, rest for 60 seconds then do as many as you can. Rest for 60 seconds then do as many as you can again. In a couple of months you’ll probably be able to do double.

That's what i used to do about 10/12 yrs ago, same with pull ups didn't really improve on those though unfortunately

Yeah pull ups are a bastard, especially as you get older.

Are pull ups harder the more you weigh when you are older

I just tried a press up and I pulled up.

Muscle deterioration as you get older, especially around your upper back and shoulders. Being heavier obviously won’t help either.

anyone had a go at chair yoga or workouts or whatever it is called

Indeed they are, especially so if you found them difficult to practise when you was lighter, dips are another exercise that is a difficult one to master.

Thought about the chair exercise routine, but doing any exercise will improve your health and mindset, its just having the will power and determination to rise from you sedate lifestyle and move ones arse etc

That’s right, even something as simple as going for a long walk, has great benefits. Which is something I should do a lot more of.

obvs some wonderful long walks around here but mbh is too stressed from all the work crap - frustrating is a thing

I try and do 3 sets of press ups and sit ups every day. 21 of each, 15 of each and then 9 of each. It makes a huge difference.

On another fitness note, I've heard good things about fit jacks that the club run.
