I'm on week 4 of not being the lazy fuck I usually am. I started doing 2 sets of 10 push ups, 10 prone back extensions, 10 reverse sit ups, & 10 leg hang/press every day but Sunday & I added 6 flights of down stairs to my week days & Saturdays. I've read that a rest day is necessary for muscle growth. That & it gets tough to power through by day six.

Is the bare minimum, but I've failed to follow though in the past. If I keep it up & prove to myself that I am willing to keep going I may buy some weights & step it up.

I only hope that you all are doing better at keeping fit than I am. I still smoke & drink too much, but at least I

If I could do it again the very first piece of equipment I would buy is some rings. You can work all areas of your back doing pull ups, levers, rows. Flip around, work your inner chest by crossing them. You can hang upside-down and shrug for your traps. You can lean into them and do triceps extensions, lean back for bicep curls.

I have a full home gym with all equipment that is reasonable for one to have and still use my rings every workout.

I have limited space but do own that space. What type of ring do you recommend?

Just type in "gymnast rings with straps" in Amazon, they'll run you from $20-$40. I use wooden handle ones and hang them from the house support in my basement. I never adjust the straps to different elevations, I use a bench to put my feet in whatever position they need to be, to do the different exercises. If you don't have one a step latter or whatever you have around the house is fine.
