Re: Squats & Deadlifts after 50, after 60?
man i have a group of old power lifters that are in their 60s and then some that are still benching and squatting every week. they do a lot of preventative and rehab work but they are still rocking them. they tell me they know they cant push the same weights they could 20 years ago but they feel much better moving weight properly for reps now. the one old guy still competes once a year and moves some pretty serious weight. he has cut out his comp squatting though even though he still hits them in the gym.
i say if you can do them without pain or messing anything up then go for it. no need to move stupid heavy ass weight either just slow the pace squeeze the muscle and rep it. a couple sets of 20 or 30 with 225 will let you know your alive and blow your legs up like no one's business. hell deads will do the exact same thing as well
