"One step at time" what actually that mean?

[@andi_4105]

@@lumiauser3373 It means that you shouldn’t immediately go off your own pace, it means that you progress little by little to achieve your desired goal.

This is the best chest triceps back legs core everything is worked here but if these seems too easy try diff variations of pushups nd jump squats pistol squat etc and pullups for back or if u dont have pullup bars towel curl superman position also helps for core try planks with diff variations and also idk what is the name of that ex in which u keep ur hands on the ground and try to press ur legs against ur upper body its an excellent core workout

It's a great routine which I'm looking for at my age of 56yrs old but my knees always ruin my workouts. Can you let me no if there's any alternatives for leg strengthening or are squats going to fine to strengthen knees. Thanks barry

Always do stretching after doing squats (not before)
Otherwise they will hurt for next couple of days atleast

Is this really all you need to do everyday? Is it to maintain muscle? To build muscle? It seems to easy. But if it is enough = me happy!

[@NorthernlionLP]

It's for increasing strength so you can lift heavy. When I cannot lift a particular weight, I do these regularly to increase my muscle strength. Muscle building is a whole different story.
