I have found over the past year that hypertrophy training is not great for me anymore. I recover much quicker and with much less, almost zero, joint pain.
so for me its 9 months out of the year strength training: High weight (RPE 7-8),
Low reps and sets. 3-5 reps for 3-5 sets with a minimum rest of 3, preferably 5, minutes between sets.
The other 3 I will do hypertrophy with mid-range weight. 10-12 reps, 3-4 sets with 45-60 seconds between sets.
