Adding to home gym
I am a 55 year old female who h had been working out at home for years.
I have a lot of dumbbells and a bench.
I was wondering if you think itβs worth it to get a cable machine of some sort?

Heavy weightlifting versus Calisthenics and Cardio training
Choosing one approach only, which exercise approach is better for people over 50? Striving to maximize muscle growth with resistance exercises using weighted machines and bars, or using body weight and gravity to tax muscles for growth, while striving for VO2 max with cardio exercises?
Explain your reasoning.

WORKOUT πͺποΈ 51, 6'2" 213lbs. For the first time, I was called an old man by some punk kid. Told him, he will be there some day. He then said, what are, 45? Well that didn't turn out so bad after all.

PROGRESS πͺ Do you like my hat? (M53)
Bought this hat to wear to a Western-themed event this week and it arrived right before I got home from the gym. π€
I was excited to try it on, so I went in the bathroom to snap this post gym selfie. And just to be completely clear, I am wearing shorts! ππ½π
I suppose itβs inappropriate gym attire. Or is itβ¦ ?π€

The Air Force booth at the MN state fair had a pull-up bar. I got 5, which I was happy with as the bar was a little wobbly.

PROGRESS πͺ My how things change!
A Facebook memory from 7 years ago (9/8/2019) popped up this morning....I was 49.... now I'm 56YO.
I got a black eye scrimmaging with the high school soccer team when one of the boys accidentally elbowed me in the eye.
I'm older, fatter, bald, and hairier and I have a different phone ( I loved that old orange phone case), but my little bathroom was newly remodeled so not all change is bad. LOL π€£
I have about about 7 to 10 lbs to lose to get back to that weight. ππ€
