I’m only 15 but I started working out when I was 14 because I was out of shape for my age and I’m starting to get better too. Watching you kinda relates since we both are trying to get better. Good work though man 👍.

[@Schismarch]

Excellent! You have a great opportunity to build the habit early! I wish you joy of the journey. Be patient and avoid shortcuts!

[@Schismarch]

Oh and thanks for the support!

[@Hossak]

You have a great setup. Nice work, variety is good. I have found it so hard to get the pulldowns to hit my lats but they are so much better and safer than badly executed pull ups. Keep it up!

[@Schismarch]

Thanks! Yeah, same struggle here. I also do chin ups and negative pull ups; working toward being able to do more than a single pull up.

[@Hossak]

@@Schismarch I just want to thank you getting me to include some lat exercises into my program - it was an area I was ignoring and now that I have put it in, things are continuing to improve. Cheers.

[@Schismarch]

That’s awesome! Good work! Love me some lat exercises.

Hey great job!

[@Schismarch]

Good to hear from you! Thanks brother!

Yes you can. I did at 52. Be careful about pushing weight heavy and pullups in particular. Got tendinitis from doing pull-ups had to use bpc 157 to get over it. Higher reps and use the stretch. Figure out your diet. Oh yeah you will look better but been 3 years and I am still getting in shape so no real hurry. Just keep at it.

[@Schismarch]

Awesome! Yeah I’m in it for the long haul; I want to build a lifetime habit.
