Slowly by surely getting this 58 year old body in shape thank you to all the buddies for the support and love.
I'd say just keep consistent. Increase time in the gym. You have the base/muscle memory. At this age volume works at moderate to higher reps without inflaming the joints.

I have rheumatoid arthritis so my joints are very angry every day no matter what lol. Also the degenerative spinal disease doesn’t help matters / spinal stenosis. . Said eventually I will be in a wheelchair but I will fight like Hell to stay out of it as long as possible

Your bitterness is real, is justified, but it does you no good if it remains as bitterness. Welcome the energy it gives you, then point that energy in a positive, productive direction.

Your anger, resentment, and frustration all have their roots in the past. Learn from what they can teach you, and apply the lessons in ways that benefit the future.

Don’t fall into the trap of needing to prove how mistreated you were. See it as an opportunity to discover how resilient you can be.

Events often go in a negative direction, But you never have to use your own time and efforts to continue in that direction.

What you’re focused on is what you empower. Focus on a hopeful future, not on a difficult past.

From here, go forward, not backward, looking for what can help, not obsessing over what has hurt. See the goodness, live the goodness, and make more of it.

Wednesday a set of deads after work

What are you saying to yourself? What are you saying to others?

Words can limit your thinking, or they can expand your horizons. Words can bring on discouragement and despair, or they can provide the encouragement to do great things.

One of the quickest and easiest ways to improve your world is to improve the words you use when thinking to yourself or speaking to others. You always have the power to choose your words, so it makes sense to choose the best, most positively powerful ones.

You’ve no doubt experienced the enormous impact that a kind, encouraging word can have. Rather than letting your words amplify a troubling situation, choose the words that will lead the way to a more positive reality.

What you say to yourself and what you say to others truly matters. When you make your language more consistently positive, your attitude cannot help but follow right along.

And that, in turn, will affect your actions and the results they bring. Your positive words can truly create a more positive world.
