I’m half joking. But as a 30-something who used to be very active, I recognize I’m over the hill and my joints sound like pop rocks

Ditto, and I switched from high-weight/low-reps to lower-weight/higher reps. Like instead of sets of 3-5, doing sets of 10-20. I recover better and It’s safer to do alone in the home gym.
Same here on the reps.
Yup. I don’t go to the gym anymore but the days of 5x5 squats and deadlifts ain’t happening anymore.
This is the way. I have also swapped out a few exercises for “safer” versions. RDLs instead of DLs, single arm dumbbell press instead of barbell press, belt squats instead of back squats. Regular back extensions and leg raises to keep the core strong
