@kevin1987 Another endorsement for Live Anabolic from me. It's aimed at intermediate people. It also has a wealth of exercises you can do at home with dumbbells and bands. Another youtube channel is BobandBrad, it's aimed at people older than you and it's about physical therapy, but you might...

@joshuathree Yes I have restricted my diet and it's working pretty well. I've spent a lot of time over at r/gastritis have a pretty good handle on the situation, especially compared to many there. Since most of the people over there don't work out I was hoping to get advice from older...

@sickinthehead I have. Tests and all. Just looking for different approaches and experiences. But thanks for a no nonsense answer.

I'm wondering if anyone here has experience with gastritis or other similar conditions. My info" M/66, I work full time in a kitchen but will retire next year. Never been athletic, but have been doing home dumbbell/bodyweight workouts for the past 5 years. Did my first chin up 2 years ago...

@selyan Live Anabolic on youtube has a lot of videos on weight training for the over 50/60 crowd. and Body Coach Tv has a few short aerobic routines for seniors/beginners. He'd have to hunt around for intermediate routines.

I did my first pull up last week. I did my first ever chin ups 2 years ago but couldn't manage to do a plain old pull up. Last month I followed the Athlean X program to do your first pull up and it worked! I modified the program a little, spread it out over 5 weeks with a 2 day rest each...

@steffi I agree with AmbivalentFanatic, get a doctor's checkup first. I've spent a couple years looking for this kind of information and there is very little on the internet. Most advice and videos are for older people who are lifelong runners/athletes/bodybuilders. Some will show...
