Interesting posts here. I use moderate weights/pull-ups/chins, 2 upper body and one lower workout/week—I worry more about pulling muscles now. Off days more walking and mild biking, and yard/garden/farm work. I turn 60 in a couple months but can still do more pullups/chinups than most men of any age.

My only issues at 45 are my shoulders. Pull ups (which are an awesome upper body exercise) have taken their toll. I do find that “palm in” chin ups are not quite as painfull as the traditional wide grip, palm out pull ups.

I am a big beliver in full range of motion in my exercises whether they are body weight or lifting. My lifting exercises now are only deadlift, cleans, clean and press, static press, front and back squats and snatches and bench presses. I haven’t done curls, cable pulls, etc. for years. Works for me.

Ohh..and to not highjack the thread...RAW WHOLE MILK IS GOOD
