My big mate who lifted heavy for years has been advised by his doc and a physio that he should lift lighter and more reps as he is older - 57 years. Not sure if this advice is good or not but he’s doing it. Saying that, light for him is heavy enough for me 😁

I have seen several fitness sites say the same :)

Max strength goes down, joints get a bit creakier so it's sensible enough.

We have to see how it goes, but I did notice sets of 5x5 and 3x8 assistance seems to be too much for recovery, so moved to 4x12 sets for assistance.
