How to proceed after two year beginner phase as a 48 year old?

Some common goals are things like

“Looking Good” or lifting weights to target and develop a muscular, broad shouldered, narrow waisted physique.

“Building Strength for Strength Sports” or lifting weights to get better and better and stronger and stronger at a handful of competition lifts. Like a guy who enters powerlifting meets.

“Performance and Being in Shape” or lifting weights to build a more faser, stronger, more resilient body to get better at non-lifting activities.

Here’s “looking good” style program.

The way you describe your training plan, it sounds pretty “Strength Focused.”

I would call 5/3/1 and Dan John stuff “Performance” or “be in shape” programs.
