For context: there was a time several years ago where I went 3 days a week doing a lifting routine. I think my heaviest dead lift was maybe 140lbs.

Two kids later, hernia surgery, and a change in position at work that has me sitting way more (used to do solo IT work for multiple buildings, now I have a team and do mostly back end admin work), and I’ve lost all my gains and put on about 20lbs.

Kids are more manageable now solo, and I’m looking to hit the gym every Monday I can.

How do I maximize this time?

Thanks in advance comrades!

    I bought a pair of gymnastic rings and go outside when weather permits and find a good spot to hang them, and you can pretty much get a full body workout with those alone. Good candidates are a outdoor pull up bar, equipment at a playground, a railing at a gazebo, a tree branch, infinite options. And i usually bike to my spot
