…says the “old lady” as I try to gently lower my legs off the side of my bed without throwing my back out. Can I make it up the stairs today? We’ll find out if I can ever make it to an upright position!
I hear you. I work out through my pain, and am under no illusions that by 40 I'll be able to anymore.
Sorry you're going through that, I hope you make it upright.

What do you mean, it’s like that every morning?




Hahahahahahahah











Wait till you kiddos start to ACTUALLY get old! You’re in for a surprise!
I still feel the same as I did in my 20's. Just a little slower and recovery takes a bit longer. I'm kinda hoping that working out for an hour a day and keeping it low impact with starve that off as long as possible.

Don’t feel bad for me…lol. I did manage a 70 mile bicycle ride yesterday. But serious, if you’re still in your 20s or early 30s, and you think you’re getting “old” now, y’all are in for a rude awakening in a decade or so…lol. :eyesmoke::hump:
Yep. You know you're getting old when you stop looking for the source of pain/injury. You just roll with it. Before I hit my mid-40s, I'd question every little ache or pain - what did I do to get this pain? How did this thing or the other happen? Now it's just okay that hurts today, no mystery, no explanation necessary. Lol.

How many miles are you up to for the year?
Maybe 3300? I dunno, I slowed down recently because I’ve been working more, which is good. But cuts into recreation time.

oh absolutely. You’re doing the best thing you can. Bodies just eventually start breaking down. But you’ll probably be in way better condition that I am when you get older. I played hard and ignored pain when I was younger, and I’m paying for it now.

T&T doesn't do structure.

yea I think if we all started at the same time or as close as we could.... have to be later to include the cool California kids. we could just use wake and bake or start a new thread for it.
Yeah, time is hard. I think insidious sounds like a jam. New thread sounds more friendly to the WnBers who don't wanna hear us teehee at invisible screens...
Whelp, it has a hook to hang on in my head, we'll see!

probably said it before but I'm so impressed! Going from nothing to 3300 miles. Have you noticed any significant changes in your body this summer?
Uh…my arm hair turned blond. Lol. And I’m more tan than I have been in almost 30 years. And my butt can sit on uncomfortable objects for much longer than before.

But my legs have always been pretty strong, so not a lot of huge difference there. Definitely my stamina increased, and my breath control is much better. But no major strength changes…mostly aerobic
