@jajejllc Hi friends,
I’ve been doing PPL with heavy weights for a year and a half now. Been watching my nutrition, been doing progressive overload, everything good.
However I feel like I started lifting weights because I’m 31 and was at a job desk since my twenties. Wanted to be in good shape and to find a functional body again.
However, the more I’m lifting the more I feel stiff (been doing yoga and mobility routine for 2 months now) but still, this is not what I was really after. I really want to find a functional body again. Be able to lift somebody hurt and to carry him for 200m (I’m a former soldier so I still live in that fantasy). Being strongman or Arnold is nice but if your body is dogshit in terms of usefulness then I feel like it’s not for me.
What should I do then? Should I try bodyweight workouts? Should I start calisthenics with some app like freeletics? If I keep my nutrition like that (high protein) will I lose muscle?
Thanks and have a great day
