    I started at 43 and am now 44. I lost at least 30 lbs of fat and I seem to have added a bit of muscle over the last year. It's true that injury is more likely and takes longer to recover from. Also instead of injuring a muscle or tendon or bone, I ended up with an inguinal hernia (which doesn't get better over time just by resting) and learned that:
    Because the cumulative incidence of inguinal hernia was higher among men (13.9%) than among women (2.1%), more detailed analyses were conducted in men. Among men in multivariate analysis, a higher incidence (p < 0.05) of inguinal hernia was associated with an age of 40–59 years (hazard ratio (HR) = 2.2, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.7, 2.8), an age of 60–74 years (HR = 2.8, 95% CI: 2.2, 3.6), and hiatal hernia (HR = 1.8, 95% CI: 1.2, 2.7),

    That hasn't stopped me but it did change the strategies I employ in seeking more strength/muscle.
