FT for older? - kind of 'For every bodybuilder post 34 years of age'

[Scott Stevenson]

as usual Scott - pure gold

slowly moving up rep ranges could also shift main focus more to metabolic stress then pure mechanical - since we (at our age) are not getting (much) stronger with every year (but still trying to - also ones strength limits due to years of lifting ...)

does it make sense ?

Yes, exactly. Plus, if one's put in the work in decades past, the loads are already very high, and really already probably much more than what our skeletal systems have been engineered by evolution to handle (in the way we expose them repeatedly), so going "lighter" or not going heavier makes sense from a longevity standpoint.
