Picked 5/6 lifts for each template. I've never really lifted weights, I did it when I was in high school and we did it for sports but never really as an adult.

Doing my best to keep it simple here. I end up getting drowned in information when I try and optimize something new. I did the same thing with Piano, I started that and am doing decent but early on I really went over board on how to get started...instead of just starting.
Lifting is great for your bone health

When you lift weights your bones bend ever so slightly and when that happens your body goes “OH SHIT! Mah bones just almost bent a little! We need bone reinforcement, stat!” And it begins to grow new stronger bone tissue

I dunno the actual process, osteo-something. But exercise scientists say the best thing you can physically do for your bone health is lift
