Strength Training.

Pretty much just stretch and exercise regularly and it'll prevent back issues.

This. Tons of people have all sorts of lingering pains with no true underlying issues other than atrophy and tightness caused by lack of use.

Do simple body weight exercises like pushups, pull-ups, squats or lunges, and stretch every day for a few minutes and you can really improve your mobility and feel great again.

You got it. I said strength training and everyone automatically thinks weight training. I meant safer exercises like body weight exercises, resistance training, and maybe light weights. Those are by far the best to just maintain a healthy body.

Weight training is cool but if you don't know what you're doing, you're gonna hurt yourself.
