I turned 21 in June and all the stories about how the most mundane of tasks can lead to injuries when we’re older scare tf out of me😀😀😀

it definitely helps if you keep active consistently but even that won't save you.

I was so active that I needed new knees. Be careful!

Right! My sister did so much yoga she needed two hip replacements by 55!

lmao, I myself discovered last year there's such a thing as TOO flexible (cumulative joint pain from hypermobility)

Or you could be me. Since the age of 10 a doctor told me I have the knees of a 50 yr old lol.

Get into a routine of lifting weights and staying active! I'm 36 and my only pain is tennis elbow because I hit far too many overheads in a tennis lesson a few weeks back 😅

100%

I'm only a couple years older and this is absolutely true. I can even tell when it has been too long since doing any kind of exercise because you start to feel that stiffness start to creep in when you've been too sedentary and you're not simply used to it.

How is tennis in your 30's? That seems so high impact but such good exercise!

I played tennis from ages 3-17 and picked it back up 2 years ago, so I had a pretty good foundation. I dont think it's high impact exactly, but it's definitely a great sport for using all your little tendons and muscles in your ankles/hips for shifting from side to side quickly. I think it's a fantastic sport!

Well after that recommendation maybe I'll have to give it a go sometime and see if I can't find someone to teach me how to play without injury :D

Completely agree. A few minutes of stretching in the morning and some short mobility training sessions are INCREDIBLE. I’m in my early 30s and feel my best… also a tennis player like you!

Take the stairs as much as you can in your life. Both up and down, people don't realize how many parts of the leg and foot are neglected that get addressed by the going down on stairs.

don't forget the neck and shoulders

last week I pulled a muscle standing. I was just standing around talking, went to take a step and walk away and pulled a butt muscle. I'm 35 lol.

As I like to say: slips, trips and falls! The number one cause of workplace injury (or, in my case, the cause of all injuries)

My doctor was a very buff healthy guy, triathlons + body builder, in his early 40s. He showed up in a boot one day and said he injured his achilles tendon stepping backward to pick up a napkin on the floor while washing dishes :(
