You have a magic pill, which de-ages you by 20 years. You can take it once in your life only, so long as you are at least 20. What age — past, current or future — do you reckon is best to take it? (lemmy.world)

the creaking bones and exhaustion hasn’t really started creeping in yet.

Uhhh about that

[-] Savaran@lemmy.world 30 points 9 months ago

Well, just saying, what creaking bones I had in my 30s don’t even rate in comparison now

[-] SteefLem@lemmy.world 15 points 9 months ago

Wife and i were talking about that yesterday. I turned 50 last year and its like my body just decided that everything should brake down all at once.

I said the same thing once I hit 30... I threw my back out once when I sneezed and was like whelp I'm basically almost dead now

[-] SteefLem@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

Ha yeah had that not with a sneeze but i made a mistake by taking a drink from the fridge, and there it went. Dumb thing is i can carry “heavy” stuff and be fine but i look at a sock wrong and my backs out and walk like a duck for a week.

Start doing morning stretches, drink more water, and avoid caffeine after 5pm
