Another bright side.
Old man strength is a real thing.
I'm 47. I'm slower than I was when I was 25. I can't jump as high. I'm not as agile and truth be told, my old man strength is fading some now.
But, I can say this. I've been a gym regular my whole life but something occurred around age 33. I started making lift gains for almost no reason in my mind. I didn't appreciably change anything I was doing.
That shite lasted solidly until I was about 44 and despite some notable fall off I can STILL lift more than I did when I was 25.
It literally makes no f'n sense to me.

all of my injuries that i got from football/water polo are now amplified and don't stop hurting.
I freaking can tell you when a front has come through by the pains I'm feeling.

Yup. And it comes in real handy when you're trying to lift your ball sack back up off the ground...

You spend more time at Home Depot than the mall.

Truth. I do more physical work in a day than some 20'ish guys do in a week. Not sure that's saying much though.
