As a guy pushing 50, DW & I joined a gym 1.5 yrs ago and have been strength training regularly ever since. We mostly used the isolation machines they have and have seen some very good progress for people in our age group.
My work schedule has changed in the last few months and I've been finding it hard, mentally, to hit the gym when I get home fairly late.
While I use to workout 4x a week I have been slowly dwindling down to like 2x/wk now if I'm lucky.
So, I just bought a set of PowerBlock 70s and a Bowflex 5.1 bench last week. I've been able to come home, workout and feel good doing so. No extra 15m drive r/t to the gym and no other people around.
On top of that I know that DBs and compounds are more effective then the iso machines, so its a good time to transition.
I need to learn most DB exercises. I have been watching the videos here on BB.com. However, it's annoying to stop and watch a vid on my phone during a workout though.
I got the wall poster things from PB but they seem kind of limited. Not a whole lot on them.
Are there any online resources to print out exercises that I can tack to the wall?
Also, not finding a whole lot for DB back exercises. Maybe I should try looking harder.
And specifically for Traps - anything other then URs & Shrugs?
Any other advice would be appreciated too.
Thanks
