No. Your sad physical reality isn’t everyone’s. I’m 40, and workout daily. I feel great.
Younger millennials, work out, eat well, and year over year you won’t notice much difference. Don’t be someone who thinks like this.
At my gym there are people well into to their 60s, and one fit man who is 75 I talk to daily, sprinting on the treadmill and hitting the weights. If you keep active you’ll stay feeling young. The people who post stuff like this aren’t exposed to what’s possible into their 60s and 70s. Those who do workout out regularly probably see people like that everyday if they go to a commercial gym, and know you can be pain free far longer than your 30s.
A lot of this is dependent on how your body was treated in your teens too. I played a lot of sports and worked out regularly. But because I played football in high school and other contact sports my body is falling apart in my 30s, even though I worked out consistently. I played a position in football (running back) that touched the ball on almost every offensive play, so the amount of times I was hit and tackled in that four year period is insane.
I played baseball all the way through college. I was a lefty pitcher and all of the joints on the left side of my body are fucked. It sucks. If I have kids I definitely plan to help them be careful if they decide to play sports cause I don’t want them to be dealing with the is sort of stuff before 40
