Just realised what I had written, it hadn't meant to read as a recommendation to get a coach. Low hanging fruit n all that. My kids are both a couple of years older now so it's more feasible now.
My comment was more around the progress available with focused training. Like unless in a specific strength/hypertrophy block, my gym is only twice a week, and within those sessions generally there is only one heavy top set of whatever the focus is.
It's a world away from my old tired assumptions of 3x10 etc.
There is almost an equivalence between junk gym work and junk miles on the bike. And that focus helps reduce unnecessary load and recovery times.
