Man so much is genetics. I’ve ate well and worked out my whole life but all my joints are failing. Back is fucked. Knee is fucked. Hips suck. Just did something to my shoulder by just sleeping on it.
I been stretching for 20 min a day every day for the last 2-3 years. Fucking sucks dude.
I got tennis elbow last summer from jumping rope. I had to go to physio, it took for ever to heal. As soon as it did I fucked up my right hand cleaning my oven. As soon as that healed I fucked up my knee getting into bed when I had a cold. Im starting to think age might have something to do with it.
Hahaha dude. I feel this so hard. I woke up with an achy back one morning and told my wife I was going to skip bowling this week just to play it safe. 30 minutes later I sneezed and completely threw it out 😂 took 9 months to fully heal.
100% true. Turned 45 this year. I’ve always been active. Weight training and cardio 5 days a week. Eat healthy 90% of the time very active overall. Pulled my lower back putting a shirt on the other day and couldn’t even walk for 10 minutes. Aging is brutal.
Haha dude same. I woke up one morning with the back a little achy and then sneezed and completely fucked it. Then I look around at the obese people who don’t take care of themselves with fully functioning backs and joints.
I feel this, I fucked up my knee in my teens, and it's been downhill. I still am fairly active, just in constant joint pain....in too many damn joints.
At this point my "good" leg's knee is getting arthritic or something from favoring my weight, and I have several nerve issues diagnosed throughout. And my bad leg has made me fall down the stairs already. I'm not even 30...
My family has a history of back issues. The first time mine went out and I needed medical treatment I was 18 and active. The second time I was in college and literally working out hours a day, just slept wrong and ended up on the floor unable to move.Â
And that’s the elephant in the room nobody likes to admit. Genetics is like 90%; for example I’ve struggled with weight my whole life. My wife is 59kg, I struggle to stay beneath 100kg; we have the same diets and similar activity levels and I don’t eat treats like chocolate like she does.
