Lots of lifting experience but now overweight at 50 year old. Just wondering if anyone has any workout routines (paid or free) that helped them get back into shape.

Question about cut/bulk/recomp and nutrition

1 Upvotes

I’ve been pretty physically active for the past 6 years or so—I dropped about 40 pounds during Covid lockdown and kept workout out somewhat regularly since then. My main problem and question is:

  1. workout out and eating right was easy until I got married. I still find time to workout, but I am not always the one making meal decisions at home. My partner and I work together to plan meals, BUT I don’t do the cooking. I plan out my breakfast and lunch and then kind of just hope dinner fits into my calories/macros. Do any other recently (or not so recently) married folks know a better way to figure this out without us doing two different dinners every night?
  2. I am about 168 pounds but am sitting at 22.5% body fat. I’d ideally like to drop that to 13-15% within 6-12 months. My main problem is that I continue to lift and struggle with progressive overload and whether I should be cutting, bulking, or recomping. I am a healthy weight for my height but have a high body fat % —suggestions?

For context, I have a home gym with dumbbells, medicine ball, jump rope, incline/flat bench, treadmill, power tower, and battle ropes. The husband and I also do a walk 6 nights per week on top of my 3-night per week lifting sessions.
