I like not having a big belly and a back that doesn't blow out very often.
I hate getting up to do exercises in morning. (but I do)

If you have the time give him a listen.
One of the things that he advocates is intermittent fasting, if nothing else it should be affordable and doable.
It is near impossible to outrun a bad diet.
I signed up for the Toronto Hyrox in October, doing Pro Womens Doubles. Joined my local running club organized by my chiropractors office about a month ago. Figured it's coach lead and I need get decent at running since the race includes a total of 8km.
So far I don't hate it (don't love it either) and am getting a bit better. Still a long ways to go to get my pace down but I think I'll get there in time.
Between run club and the race track, my strength workouts have taken a back seat. Need to sit down and plan out some more Hyrox style workouts so I don't lose my strength and feel like utter death slowing down my partner

It takes about four miles of running to work off the calories from a donut. Unfortunately the donut shop is only a half a mile away. A Timbit would be a break even.

I've found lately I HAVE to have a good warmup and stretch before I do any kind of training or exercise, or I risk injury, so I've found a good routine from one of those Instagram influencer girls, it works pretty good, leg days and hard cardio no longer seem to causes injury or pain

Julia Reppel on YT is the best IMO for all kind of mobility routines.
I should really get going on that. Noticing my mobility is falling off a cliff at 46.
There’s a good studio called Modo Yoga in Sheridan Mall on Erin Mills, not too far from you. My wife teaches there and I’m going 2-3 times a week. It makes a huge difference in posture, mobility, and strength among many other things.
Sitting at a desk for most of my work days is very poor for my body and going to a few classes a week really helps put it back to where it should be. And it makes a big difference with my riding endurance too.

Trying to get back into it and damn so difficult between everything.
I’m sure I’ve asked before but anyone got a decent 3-4 day split that’s quick to do and does full body?
I’m bored of my: chest / tri, back / bi, shoulders / legs
Very repetitive and I run out of weights quickly with the Powerblocks at 50lbs

Nice! I've got the Bowflex 8-40lb KB and I don't use it enough. Looking for a second one to compliment the first, but not sure if needed.try kettlebells - real functional strength development and so much fun.

40lb = 18kg, plenty for me as I prefer Strength Endurance vs power..
try snatch (only need one
) - can you do 50 to 100 clean reps (25-50 each hand in the set that is) without putting it down?and for the #1 exercise [called Long Cycle] you def need a set of 2 - goal would be around 20-40 clean reps with set of 18kgs..
