Simple 5x5 with your choice of base lifts, depending on additional workload from work, sport etc. Or, now when the gyms are closed, Never gymless from Ross Enamait.

I have a pullup bar, suspension trainer and a 24 and 32 kg kb. Combined with NG, that neans I don’t have an excuse to be out of shape. ps: Never gymless is on covid 19-sale, 1 dollar for the e-book. How to train Max Strength, strength endurance, explosive strength etc and conditioning, all without equipment, with progressions from complete beginner to experiences athete. Highly recommended.

When I did weight lifting I did repetitions, and not to failure, every other day. Cardio on the off days, bicycle and running. I found that if I burned off the adrenaline daily, it required a lot more to make me lose my temper the rest of the day. "Stupid" has always made me grumpy and there is always a lot of "stupid" around. Nowadays I use resistance bands and do a set routine to keep my muscles toned. Maintaining muscle tone helps old bones retain mass. For cardio I go walking in the evenings to please my doctor.
Never go to failure. Complete the exercise or go down in weight. I have had success with 5x5 and look forward to trying starting strength once I find a gym that's willing to roll the dice and open Up indefinately.
after being a Gym rat for years. Also swimming, Scuba, bike riding volley ball, Judo & San Soo until I thrashed my spine. These Days, approaching my Golden years & requiring a few surgeries, it’s Yoga & power bands....
I thought you guys might find this interesting. He is one of the coaches, whose training methods I have tried to emulate at times. Of course, I'm nowhere near his level!
I do Westside. Or follow the conjugate template to be more exact. 4 main sessions per week, maximum effort lower and upper, dynamic effort lower and upper. Today was ME upper body, main movement was bench with bands up to 1RM.
