    I learned it all without a trainer and did it with a squat rack in my basement, eventually upgrading to a power rack. There are essentially only three main compound lifts that you need to learn and they pretty simple. Jeff Nippard has technique videos on youtube for every lift you need - Squat, bench and deadlift. He also shows variations that may work better for you and feel safer. For me I do a Romanian deadlift and front squats to protect my back.

      First off, thank you very much again
      As a second, sorry, you already gave me a link
      By now so many people answered, that I’ve lost the overview…

      I’ve bookmarked your link and saved your comment and will lookup Jeff Nippard.
      Such videos are usually very helpful.

      As already mentioned in another comment, I plan now to finally get rid of the “storage room” in our apartment and do something reasonable with it.
      I’ll need to talk with the wife about the details, but read thinking about a mix of gym and reading room.

      So, fuck the my flu (hopefully soon) and I’ll have a summer project, that actually helps me in the future :⁠-⁠)

      Thank you very much for your input.
      That was really motivating and I really want to go for this now :⁠-⁠)
      Maybe with some adaptions to my personal preferences, but the spark is here now.
      So, again, thank you very much for that!
