First, don't take this the wrong way, I'm getting old myself too. I'll be 43 this year.
I believe the average age on this forum is a bit on the older side. So I'm asking this question here.
Been working out in the gym since the college days. Just regular stuff to be in shape. Weight room, run, etc. However, as I get older, I perhaps should think more about what I do.
Back in the days, I've seen guys snap and pop something, and got hurt and never return to the weight room. I myself got one shoulder that "hurts" since my college days from weight lifting.
My question is, what should be the routine for someone that is a bit older? What do you do?
In no ways am I trying to slow down or give up, etc, etc. I just want to do the right things for my body - without hurting it. I'm not 25 anymore.
I've asked the "experts" and many would say the opposite, and point to examples of men in their 50s and 60s that would put make a young man to shame. But that's not me. That's not what I want to do.
For those that are working out, I hope you understand my question.
