same work every day and feeling weak

I own a horse farm and do a lot of manual labor every day. I've been doing this type of work for 15 years and although it's always been tough, lately I've been feeling really sore and weak from the same work. Lugging buckets of water, cleaning stalls, lifting 50lb bags of grain, etc. It's all feeling really hard lately. I'm getting older (46), but I think I'm pretty fit. Would it make sense for me to lift weights or would it just make me even more sore and tired?

depends on the reason for being sore and tired?
too large a deficit, not enough sleep, coming down with illness?0 -
I sleep about the same as I always have, not great, but typical for me. It's been going on like this for several months and other than being sore and weak, I feel pretty good.0

Have you been to the Dr and had bloodwork done to ensure you don't have any underlying issues ?1
