Take care of your body. Stretch. Warm up. 30 is the threshold where you start to really lose the ability to heal. You can injure yourself now and your body just won't heal back to 100%. Ever.
Can confirm this, sadly. I turned 30 right around the time COVID hit and immediately stopped my usual exercise activities due to restrictions. A year later and I’m constantly nursing stupid injuries from nothing. My body simply isn’t bouncing back like it used to
Maybe you can increase your Lysine [0] intake. Amazon sells pure Lysine tabs [1]. I should warn you though, they're a bit big to swallow and have a slight after-taste.
Lysine is an amino acid so you can just get protein from varied sources and you’ll likely get enough. Taking a lysine supplement is like taking a bcaa supplement. Entirely unnecessary if your dietary protein intake is high enough and from varied sources
Don't spend 3 years without going to the dentist like a certain idiot who is commenting on your post. Just because you're not feeling pain it doesn't mean the little creatures aren't eating the insides of your teeth.
Toothbrushes are cheaper than fillings. And fillings are cheaper than root canals. I think we need better ways of terrorizing kids about their oral health because it seems like a lot of lessons don't stick.
Not sure about that. I’m in my late 40s and have smashed the crap out of myself quite badly in the last 20 years. I’m sure it’ll catch up with me eventually but at the moment I am peak fitness.
What is important is being healthy enough to heal. That means you need to eat well, exercise regularly and give yourself time to heal if you have to.
Edit: to be clear the injuries are obtained through risky sporting activities not through general wear and tear and general exercise.
To clarify my point about healing, most people don’t give themselves time to heal properly at any age and end up with a compromised outcome.
