Meds dialed in, big weight loss, now considering adding lifting back to break plateau.

Stats:
Age: 44
Weight: 245 lbs (from 285 lbs--currently plateauing)
Height: 6'2
Health: hypothyroid, secondary hypogonadism (both diagnosed after the sudden and big weight gain)
Meds: 200 mg/mL weekly testosterone, 100 mcg levo daily, 100mg losartan/25mg hyrdro daily
Diet: keto/intermittent fasting (20:4)
Other fitness activities: BJJ, kayaking
Lifting Goals: additional 30-50 lb weight loss
Concerns: bad shoulders, suspect knee, ability to train BJJ after lifting
This was the past program I used that I'm comfortable and familiar with:
All exercises x3 with increasing weight/8-10-12 sets (except legs, which are closer to 20-22-24) to max out at 12
Day 1: chest (bench press, decline, flies); shoulders (flies, raises, overhead presses); triceps (kicks, press/skullcrusher supersets)
Day 2: back (lawnmowers), biceps (isolated curls, barbell curls, reverse barbell curls), forearms (dumbbell palm rolls)
Day 3: legs (all bodyweight--calf lifts, squats, lunges)
Any recommendations or modifications? Is 3 sets per each exercise too much?
**incline and overhead presses are now likely out of the questions due to shoulders

Nothing to add, besides telling you ThreauxDown is going to be pissed.

Sheeet. Let me know when he’s working from the disadvantage of testing in the 180s.

Wrong
If you read the post you’d know I was alluding to 45+
This dude is clearly not 45+
