Meh, I'm 38, been very active my whole life (small blip because of the Vid and the crippling depression and chronic drinking that came with it), but I notice recovery time for injury, while not permanent, is way longer than it was at 27, and more for 18. Goes for exhaustion and hangovers too. Shit just lingers. But we beat on, you know? Can't just stop.

I work out 5 days a week. I fell while skiing for the first time and popped my knee in a bad way. It still hurts months later.

This is something that only privileged people who haven't really been injured and don't have bad genes say.

wfh is not good for my body. it can be hard to get proper movement in on busy days where everything is a priority and shit keeps coming up. it definitely takes more intention to keep up an appropriate level of activity, both during the work day and before/after. I didn't have these issues before wfh

You've never broken your ankle I see.

Injuries rack up, even if you're not sedentary. I'm in my 40s and most of my aches and pains come from sport or weightlifting injuries.

Copying my comment from another reply because fuck you. I was temporarily paralyzed when I was 14 at a Cadet fitness weekend when I was in grade 8. Even though I gained movement again I’m still stuck with back pain and I’m turning 40 this year. My right wrist is fucked from creative writing in college. My right knee hurts day to day from ball hockey. My right shoulder the same thing from getting tripped and hyper-extending it on the court. My left knee hurts day to day driving a transport truck with a clutch for the past 8 years. Also hockey from being a goalie in my early days. No, there are a LOT of things that happen along the way that become permanent. Outside of my spinal issues most of my day to day pain is from adulthood.
