<\/p>\n Like most athletes who would rather be outdoors running, riding, swimming, or hiking, I don\u2019t set aside much time for the gym. Yet I fully realize the importance of building general strength and mobility\u2014not just to support my outdoor activities, but also for everyday health and fitness. I\u2019d like to be able to unload groceries, haul suitcases up and down stairs, and bend over to put on my shoes well into my eighties. That means I have to go to the gym a few days a week. But when I\u2019m there, I try to focus solely on the essentials. (If you\u2019re willing to buy a kettlebell, some dumbbells, and a pull-up bar, you don\u2019t even need to leave your home.)<\/p>\n<\/div>\nFive exercises that will guarantee you have the strength to adventure all weekend, well into your eighties.<\/h2>\n<\/header>\n
