One key to avoiding injury weight lifting as you grow older is to rotate through slower tempos (313 = 3 seconds up, 1 seconds hold, 5 seconds down). The slower tempos cause you tendons and connective tissue to get stronger. 1 second tempos won't do that. So the trap people fall into is their muscles keep getting stronger but their tendons don't and they injure their tendons at some point.
