In my 50s and have finally decided to get serious about trying to incorporate a solid weight routine. My goal is to try to get as much bang for my buck time-wise out of 2x per week and hopefully 45 minutes or less. Right now I'm doing the following:
trap bar squats w/ the raised handles (3 sets of 5-6)
trap bar RDLs (3 sets of 5-6)
kettlebell swings (3 sets of 12)
Bulgarian split squats w/ dumbbells (3 sets of 12 each leg)
pull ups (2 sets)
dips (2 sets)
Too much glute work? My glutes are definitely getting hammered by this (pretty sore the next couple of days), but I'm thinking that's a good thing. I've been told I have "quad-dominant" running form and am trying to use my glutes more and strengthen them.
Anything I should add or remove? I'm pretty inflexible and feel like a trap bar is working well to keep from overstressing my knees and back.
Thanks!
