Like ORLY, I’m an enthusiast in favour of bodyweight.exercises:
-pushups (mix of regular, 1 arm/1 arm-1 leg/clap) (50-100/d)
-single leg squats (2x 5-10)
-pull-ups etc.
All were great in terms of boosting self esteem, confidence and a general flow on effect on concentration. Not brave enough to dry any inverted stuff like handstands just yet.
I’ve recently added russian twists and an assortment of resistance based/gymnastic/balance/yoga style exercises to the daily repertoire. A gymball helps to mix things up, and this general strength training benefits my badminton/squash which I try and get out to 3 times/week. I suppose my aims are primarily functional strength, not just bulking up.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
