Oh my goddd
sooo relatableMost body pain is a symptom of weak muscles, especially back pain. Lift weights and you’ll have even more pain temporarily and then no pain at all.
possibly weak muscles + sitting all day in weird positions. nevertheless body recovery rate declines rapidly no matter what you do…
If you’re talking about the recovery that I’m thinking about, that is of physical exertion, there is a lot you can do to slow the rate of decline actually.
Does physical exertion include recovery from injuries, infections etc
Actually yes. A high vo2max is correlated to many health benefits including better and faster recovery from illness. It even lowers your chance from death in a car crash. It’s crazy.
Plus, you’ll sleep better from your body being truly tired.
This too, I have a shit time falling asleep when I take a week off the gym.
I fell down in the shop yesterday and landed on top of some large tools. There was a bunch of blood and I’m all bruised up.
I’ll be fine but sleeping last night felt like torture I couldn’t get comfortable at all and ended up sleeping against the wall.
So I can really relate to this haha
A pillow between the knees is a gift for side sleepers regardless of age!
I sleep hugging a pillow. I’m not sure if it’s because I’m more comfortable that way or it’s because I just need to hug something.
I fell asleep on the floor yesterday while petting the cat. Slept for about three hours and woke up unscathed. It was surprisingly relaxing to tell the truth. I think I’m not made for soft bedding.
It really varies by person. I sleep best on a foam matress on a futon on the floor. When I go to a hotel with the ultra-soft bedding it just seems weird.
When I was six I fell asleep with my head on a pile of Hotwheels.
Now I have to spend ten minutes beating an expensive pillow into just the right shape.
Fuck off right now. I just got to this stage in life. Ugh. They are so comfortable though…
I like to believe that I won’t go through this when I reach that age
FWIW - I’m in my mid-50s and still feel basically the same as I did in my late 20s / early-30s. All of these aging memes strike me as odd and/or maybe people who haven’t been kind to their bodies. I sleep like a rock on a normal bed, with one pillow, and wake up rested with no pain and get out of bed and do normal stuff just fine. Weird, huh?
I think I’m being good to my body. Hopefully I turn out like you haha
They eat garbage, never exercise, then reply really butthurt when the obvious is pointed out.
Oh fuck off
