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

    I find a variety of activities help distribute the loads

    I often push my older body when it’s not used to work. This means I pull a muscle once every few weeks, often in my upper body; or demand too much in my knees.

    Fortunately I can heal in a week or two, but I definitely am slow to heal compared to before.
