If you've lifted for many years, how are your joints doing as you've gotten older? Do you still lift heavy?
I've backed off on weight the past 6 years or so to ease up on my joints as I age, and sometimes wonder if I should go with just body weight for resistance training. And sometimes I get the urge to go heavy again! Joints seem ok, except my right shoulder, which got injured a few times. It's crunchy at some angles but not painful (yet?).
