did you stretch
Discussion
Nope
ah yes
good old case of "i started sprinting without stretching after years of not doing any physical exercise, and for some odd reason my body couldn't withstand it. shocking"
that comes with age
Ugh. I’m fucking old as hell man
No you’re not. I’m 52 and can still just about move 🤣 - takes a little more time to build up from a break compared to when younger. Regular walking is great for this and over a decent distance. Then build up the pace and turn it into a power walk/jog. Swimming also great in between to promote/keep the flexibility and take the pressure off the joints. (Recovery). Injury often a result of overdoing it/technique.
You don’t feel like you’re falling apart? Maybe there’s differences in old man bodies and old lady bodies 😂
Hmm maybe 😅 - not falling apart (yet). Main changes though have been a drop in flexibility, speed, range of motion etc but that’s natural. Ain’t no 50+ year olds competing with 20-30 year olds in competitive sports. But one can build up and maintain a decent level of the above for a long time.
