My workout for today: I got up. In all earnesty I should start to work out. Not that I'm overweight or anyting (1.82 m/5 ft 9 in and 80 kg/177 lb), but just to be sure I don't gain more weight and keep get some muscle toning. But where to start? I haven't got the cash for fitness apparatus or fitnesscenters. So I'll have to do it at home.
Thanks! I should do that. I guess I'd better start looking for a good, balanced workout schedule for workout noobs. I may start with banana squats.

2-2-16 Squat session 3x8 with 225 then 3x5 with 245 Followed up with some power cleans and designated hamstring work. Ended workout with some hanging leg raises and muscle up practice. Been trying to learn the movement pattern so I either use some bands assistance or have a box under my feet to jump off for momentum. Just doing 3-5 sets of 5 to learn the movement but not get very fatigued

I literally train my calves like once every month. I have always had big calves so I don't really need to. Thank you genetics lol because I personally think calf workouts are incredibly boring. Dips are one of my favorite exercises, I like to add more forward lean to it, puts more emphasis on the chest.
Dips are fun, I do both forward and rear emphasis while I'm at it in order to hit the traps. I agree calves can be boring but the hack squat calve raises have changed that for me because it's a comfortable position to be in and they are very effective. Bonus for me is that the girls usually workout in the immediate area!
Ha I workout in the early morning so it's usually older men in there with me and maybe 1 female that is much older than I am
Hehehe, in fact, I prefer when they are fewer good looking young ladies at the gym; easier to focus. Plus it seems some of them go there to pick-up rather than exercise.
Well I am not a happy camper for the 2nd day in a row. The New Year's Resolution crowd has taken over not only the gym but the parking lot out front, the two side buildings, the bank next door and the two insurance company parking lot. No place to park yesterday so I parked across the four lane street and walked over the gym only to find long waiting lines for the equipment that I use for chest/tricep day. I applaud the individuals wanting to get back into shape but I HATE it when the individual and the partner(s) take PROLONG rest between sets and sit on the equipment to boot. Each hammer machine and free equipment I use had multiple people waiting. I was pissed and just went into the sauna for 2o minutes yesterday. Normally my entire workout on the equipment 24 sets tops takes me between 47-55 minutes. I don't waste time with high intensity training routine. So seeing people getting to their second set of incline press and I could have done with my entire incline press sets by then gets my temp a little high. Today I drive into the parking lot and same issue with no place to park in the same areas as noted above so I just headed home and made a call to another location six miles away east of my home and they stated half full with most of them on the cardio equipment so tomorrow I will try again but head over to the location east of my home and not the my usual gym which two blocks from work.
