I’m half joking. But as a 30-something who used to be very active, I recognize I’m over the hill and my joints sound like pop rocks

how badly do you guys treat your bodies that you are decrepit in your 30s??
Asking the real question. I’m in my 40’s now and doing fine. Sure I’m not literally invincible anymore like I was as a teenager but everything works as it should.
I’m 39, and the picture of health. I rarely injure myself, and when i do, it doesn’t take long to heal. Holy shit, how bad are these people treating themselves if they’re so decrepit so young? SMH my head.
I’m half joking when I say decrepit but I’m definitely not able to workout 6 days a week, play 3 mid intensity basketball games back to back, or bike for 4 hours anymore. No major injuries but I feel the wear and tear a lot more than I used to. Biologically, people typically do go through a noticeable decline in performance after 30.
I read that there are two “waves” of rapid biomolecular aging in the mid-40s and early 60s. Still affects everyone differently and of course a worn-out body will feel that much worse.
In general, though, our bodies start wearing out in our mid-teens, about a decade before we’re even fully grown! High-frequency hearing is one of the first things to suffer. Bodily decline is really a constant companion in our lives; it only becomes noticeable when it starts accelerating.
No exercise and lack of muscle really makes life harder.
NOT GREAT, TBH
