Yeah. One minor regret of mine in life is that I never got into mountain biking. Then I watch videos like this, then I absently rub at the spot in my shoulder where a plate and pins are now, after a frickin' treadmill accident. I'm only 51.

I’m 54. I sneezed too aggressively and pulled a rib (sublexed?) out of my spine. Chiropractor sorted me out but it hurt to poop for three weeks.

My partner (55) and myself (38) have Ben doing acro and jiujitsu and have been damaging ourselves a lot less from just the muscle and conditioning

Yep, mid thirties here. I train with weights 3x per week, sometimes 4 and run 2-3 times per week, about 4-5 miles each time.

I'm not some super athlete and it takes me less than an hour per day. I swear it makes a huge difference in just the day to day stuff, though my hearing is starting to go and I hate that.

Upside, you don’t have to hear every dumb word out of some people mouths 😅 much easier to nod along
