The whole gym fits in half a garage

People expect a fitness coach to have a gym full of machines. Mine has two kettlebells, a pull-up bar, a plyo box and a whiteboard.

That's deliberate. The things that keep you capable as you age are carries, squats, hinges, hangs and pushes. You can train all of them with almost nothing. What matters is showing up three times a week and adding a little each time.

It's also why Garage Strong is built around that kit. If you can set aside half a garage or a corner of the lounge, you can do the whole plan.
