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 began working out heavily in my 20s because I was scared of being unable to in my 30s.
The key was discipline and training, your body remembers, and you age but you keep half.
I look at Arnie for inspiration, he was happy and still pumping iron in his 60s and 70s, proving it’s all about a good mental attitude and consistency
I’ve watched Pumping Iron as much as a straight man can but we both know we can’t sustain that amount of growth without some PEDs
I mean; you’re right, they’re probably taking some kind of supplements and are on a very regimented diet
Obviously we don’t need to be in the same caliber or grade as them, it’s more to do with the general attitude or headspace they’re in
I don’t think fitness should be competitive, other than with oneself, and those small lifestyle changes amount to being able to sustain said athletic lifestyle late into life
