The Late Starter

(London, UK)
I started lifting at 52 after realizing my desk job was destroying my posture and energy. At first, I was intimidated by all the injuries I heard people talk about — torn shoulders, bad backs, etc.
Your article gave me a ton of confidence. The idea that strength protects you really clicked. I’ve been focusing on form, controlled reps, and not pushing past recovery. So far, no aches, no pains — just progress. Thanks for making this stuff accessible for the “late bloomers.”
