100% - a lot of the workout videos on YT for men over 40 over simplify and say you just need 5 exercises (squat, deadlift, row, bench, press) but that leaves out so many regular movements we have to make rely on core and small muscles. The Apple workouts really stress that - a lot of the movements are one sided (eg. alternating lunges or presses) or they combine them with movements (eg. squat then press and rotate) and it's so obvious my little muscles and core are weak.
