30's are special though as you just begin to notice these things. I remember my big wake up call is I was working a job with a lot of shipping and recieving. I would always jump off the dock and one day I jumped off and just stopped because I could feel it in my back. It was like the official day I was no longer young.
I screwed up my knee getting out of a cargo van. I work on a farm and there are a million other ways I could hurt myself but no, I fucked up my knee getting out of a van.
I know someone who required knee surgery and a year of physical therapy after stepping down off a bale of hay and landing a little crooked. Getting old sucks.
I've been nursing an injured shoulder and thumb for close to two months. Almost healed now but I don't even know what caused it. I just woke up one morning in pain. Getting old sucks!
30's are where I realized it's not about losing, say, the physical strength to deadlift and shuffle something maxing your muscles out, it's when doing that carries serious risk of fucking you up.
Or yeah, like you said, jolts to your body giving suck. It helps if you give yourself a second to plan before doing though
Oh yeah if I had stretched and prepped I likely would have been fine but it was an end to just casually doing stuff like that with no consequence.
Ah, my secret to avoiding that is to be obese when in my 20s, and then losing that before i hit 30 by doing weightlifting. I'm feeling MUCH better physically.
(apart from being able to handle lack of sleep)
