Another option is get ye some second hand iron, bodyweight is great, especially for mobility, if you go at it hard, but for like $80 for a barbell, a couple of dumbells and some plates, you can do progressive overload more efficiently. As you strengthen add more plates, a bench etc. Look into the big five lifts, ‘Starting Strength’ is a good beginners text, skip the gym bros videos except for a form check.
You’ll be staggered what a three month program will do for you, in the comfort of your own home. Probably for less than the cost of three months gym you have it forever.
all solid advice, also love “Starting Strength” for covering the big five lifts. I’m a big fan of “New Functional Training for Sports” by Michael Boyle too, it’s a little broader and outlines a lot of very useful free weight exercise progressions. “The Muscle and Strength Pyramid” by Eric Helms is also a great resource to introduce program design ideas like periodization, etc.
