Russian Olypmic lifters squat multiple times a day, multiple times per week.
Granted they are the elite, but it shows you what we are capable of.
At 40 you will just have to build up more conservatively. I would also probably suggest monday and friday being 3x5 and weds being a light 2x10 (possibly front squat).
There is no question in my mind though that strength based routines like SS are the absolute best for a newb to the iron game.
