I needed this right now. Thank you.
I plan on and am on track to be much healthier, but agreed on the rest.
Feelz bad for Rich Webster whose life is on a downward spiral.
Lol, I’ve had a really bad cold (or something) for a week so, no. I feel like I’m fucking dying.
Nah, if you peak too early you gotta live with the downfall. I’m planning on being the most healthy in my 50s during the second global climate wars.
On a single daily water rat and corpse starch wafers? No gains
Not physically, no. The best time to start getting into shape was yesterday. The second best time is today.
I exercise for the sole purpose of making getting old suck less.
As an old person, a lot of my aches and pains now come from fitness-activity injuries in my youth. So may I suggest MODERATION. Watch the wear and tear on your tendons and cartilage!
For sure. People need to know there’s a difference between getting into shape, and getting ripped.
When I started my most recent exercise stint, I took my workout program and started with 4 sets of 25 reps at 2.5lb. Once I could do the last set without any sort of struggle, I upped it by 2.5lb.
This has many benefits, such as strengthening supporting muscles, letting your tendons and ligaments slowly get used to moving the weight, and cements in proper form so you don’t end up doing cheater reps at higher weight.
It’s more difficult than many might expect. For instance, my 10rm on bicep curls is 45lb, but my 25rm is 15lb.
Some of us can only dream of that, because we have unrelated health issues that prevent us from exercising, and a shitton of other stuff. All we can do is hope that this isn’t the healthiest well ever be, because that thought is fucking depressing.
Well fucking thanks. Fat chance of me enjoying this moment now. Instead I just feel bad for all the moments missed and mortality in general.
I have never felt this way. Part of it’s luck, but even hard stuff I feel like has made me a better person, and happier for it.
I’m thinking about killing myself constantly. I can’t imagine I’ll ever long for this.
Maybe if I’m dead? But then I won’t be longing for anything…
Mate pls get help in any way you can? Please?
It’s sometimes hard to find something worth enjoying, I hope this happens way sooner than you think.
call 988 if you can?
Damn, that’s depressing as fuck future me should set higher standards cause present me is a walking disaster
Is the lesson, “Don’t take walking for granted.” ?
Knees aren’t guaranteed…
I like how many assumptions were made there. But they are all wrong in my case. I’m fucking sick, away from home and basically miserable at the moment. Only good thing is I’m still alive and have all my faculties. 20 years from now all I’ll want is a comfortable home, reasonable health, my loved ones and my puppy with me. I’m old enough to know that I’m not into retakes.
Reported for not being wholesome. This is just mean and cruel.
Im extremely depressed and dysphoric, if this is the peak of my life then ill probably be dead in 20 years
I think this all the time. I have trouble being in the moment, but my life right now is possibly the best it’ll ever be. So it’s important that I take the time to be grateful for how things are right now.
I already know I don’t wanna be 20 years from now.
I don’t even want to be now.
Hey shrub, FWIW I think the world is better with people like you in it. Take care of yourself, please, and I hope life treats you as well as it can. If you ever need someone to talk to or anything, this internet stranger’s door is always open.
Thank you.
(I also apologise, it was late night & I didn’t realise I was in Lemmy be wholesome)You are indeed one nice individual, words like that help & make life easier (calmer even?) for others. I wish upon you a good world too, a world that makes it a nice place to be part of, and that you have your part & place in it that makes you happy & content.
Not to kill the vibe or anything. But I’m depressed as shit right now. If in 20 years shit is so much worse than right now, then I’m going to take a long walk off a short cliff.
