I know. The odds aren't super increased til like 40. Alas, my mom had me at 39, & I ended up freakishly tall. That's pretty much a birth defect.

Started getting sore after random shut around my late twenties.. Wasn't in shape at all and while I'm not in the greatest shape at 40, I workout to keep my strength up.. The soreness and creaky joints only worsens though.

Not really. It just depends.

Tall is good. Short bad.

Short people have no reason to live.

44 or so... that's when it hit me. Physical activity, while a bit slower... I'm still pretty capable. I just can't see anymore, my hearing isn't as good, starting to get a few wrinkles and a little bit of a bald spot. frick me... I'm falling to pieces.

If I ended up this height coming from short parents, my poor kid would be screwed. It's probably for the best that I leave that stone unturned.

You'd better get to plowin that arse baw. Thought I'd have 3 by now though. I'm 29, not liking what these ot'ers are saying(though I'm extremely active, probably good for 10 more years), and I've got one. I don't think I'm going to have anymore if I turn 35 first. Mine will be 18 when I'm 40...that sounds nice too. The delima.

30 is too young. I turned 50 last year and I'm moving most days like I'm 70.

I'd say 45, I had to take my 17 yo son down in the foyer as he disrespected his mom. I was sore as hell the next day. I would never tell him that.

was once told by a wise old man to never ever give up cuz when you admit it your body will believe what mind is saying, so never ever give up and admit your getting old, you guys are a bunch of pussies...

At about 29-30 I definifely realized I wasn't physically the same as my early/mid 20s. But I'm still playing soccer competitively and most people I play against are younger than me and I'm hanging in there for now. But every year gets tougher.

43


But I can still drive a golf ball 310+ Although my scores are going up because I have to put some torque into it which make me go left more than I care for.

I only do a few drinks when out on the town now.

That's the hand of gods superpower bestowed upon all fathers of sons.. It quickly fades when they begin to pay their own bills..
