Who's still lifting?

PR'd squats tonight at 255x5 after warmup.

I started lifting in May, basing the workouts off of Starting Strength, but the "old person" version for people over 40, that's a little less intense.
I made great gains, the massive beginner gains have slowed considerably, but still getting PRs, I just have to make sure there are more rest days and sometimes drop down and do higher reps before coming back after a couple weeks to top out again.
I feel so much better and stronger since starting, I can pick up the kids relatively easily again even though they are getting really big.
