@kplex I work with a personal trainer and do lots over head presses, triceps weights and back strengthening free weights. Lunges etc. crunches and forward falls are bad as are chest flies (so I’ve been told)

@kplex Nothing special. Recently, I've been doing free weights with overhead presses, split lunges, and dead lifts. Before, I was doing rows -- on weight machines -- and doing planks and side planks. When the spirit moves me, I do glute bridges, bird dog, and dead bug. In general, a variety of stuff because I get bored! While I am waiting for my morning coffee to heat up, I jump up and down or do heel drops -- somewhere I read these could help strengthen the femoral neck, which is my weakest spot, and the moves don't take much effort.
