Nodding to the point that calisthenics can get pretty rough on the body. I think for you, maybe a combo of body weight exercises, swimming, walking, jogging, and light weight lifting / high reps is probably the best. Mix in some other physical activities regularly like hiking if there are some challenging trails. Maybe mixing it up a lot will keep you from getting pounded and degraded too much from any one activity?

Another thing that might be good for you would be something like yoga or Tai Chi, as a supplement to whatever routine you have above.

And more important not becoming huge - eat a good diet. In your case it will be doubly important. Lean protein, healthy fats, a little bit of healthy carbs, but avoid sugary stuff, and avoid processed stuff in boxes, cans, and at restaurants.

look up Tom Merrick on Youtube. he has great bodyweight exercise workouts. becuz the gyms have closed i've learned a lot about bodyweight training and physiotherapy over the past year. rly worth it. also check out Foundation Training, it's a great form of exercise for actual health. start with the foundation training 12 minute routine, it's great for posture and strengthening your lower back and glutes.

When I have no weights around, it's always pushups, crunches, and lots of squats. Chin ups are also great if you have a chin up bar.

I use gymnastic rings at home, for legs I do weighted lunges and light squats.

Only exercise 1-2 hours a week, 79kg, 179cm with visible abs, good enough for me to get laid.
