I have virtually the same story, years out, wife, 2 kids only I’m 35.
Your plan looks good. It seems a little much if starting out again.
Id go:
Week 1 at 40% of max weight, then work up to 70-80% and do up to 7 reps for each excercise. What is the diet plan looking like?? How tall, what is your current weight?
