No doubt if I don't lift huge I lose the maximum strength fast - like in three weeks, funny thing if I take off for two weeks I come back pretty strong.

But I worry about high rep wear & tear. It's really an art knowing the right reps the right weight and not getting excessive wear after a few decades.

Just read today (RunnersWorld) how marathoner Ryan Hall has wear from years of training - he stopped training.
