This was my original accountability space for a challenge I set myself to build muscle in time for my 50th birthday, and all the lessons and tips I learnt along the way.
Well I'm now 50 and things (naively) took way longer than I thought they would, so my journey of FUN, FOOD & FITNESS continues!! I'm still learning along the way, so jump in and join me. My goal for 50 has passed so I'm striving to make myself a more resilient human as I get older. Training for longevity
I’m not a fitness or medical professional and the things I do may not suit everyone (and sometimes didn't suit me either). You should ALWAYS consult a health or fitness professional before embarking on any new regime, especially if you have some pre-existing health conditions.

Another suggestion that's even smaller than the barbell jack is a Dead Wedge. You could put one in a pocket and it helps with all but the first plate.

I had to look that up, but agree, this is a way more portable option. Thanks for the great tip!

I have a weight shelf for stacking my plates and dumbells. It allows me to keep the area tidy and keeps things off the floor allowing me to sweep up dust and spiders. It was one of the best additions I have bought. Also knee wraps are high on the list. I'm 45 and aching knees are no joke.

Thanks @kickinthegob. As you can see from my video, my stuff lives on the floor and it can be quite an effort getting to some of it at times (as well as a bit dangerous)! A shelf would be awesome-I've just cleared another are of the garage, so a shelf might be on the cards! Knee wraps and sleeves are an excellent shout too (I do have some of those). Keep up the good fight in your gym!

@@phillip.ingham Thanks Phil, you too. My shelf is a rolling setup with a rack for the weight plates below and a shelf for my adjustable dumbells on top. It's about 7 foot long and I can rack about 600 kg of weights on it. There are different types but I recommend getting one that has sufficient space that you don't have to un-rack weights to get to what you want. It's a time and sanity sanity saver.
