To be fair, guys get better as they age. Like wine.
Unfortunately us ladies are like lettuce.

No I don’t think so! I’ve seen many finely aged ladies.
I feel opposite of you people though. I’m 25, but I can’t wait to be 35. I’ll be strong as absolute shit. Something magical happens to men starting in their mid 30’s. You get old man strength. It’s gonna be sweet.

30’s is reserved for middle man strength, and that is sweet. Above 40 is where Old Man Strength starts to kick in, and it’s anything but sweet, in fact it’s sour, and smells of a mixture of rusty nails and sauerkraut. Verkohansky wrote a whole book on it, I think, could be mistaken.

Yeahhhhh so i don’t get old lady strength. All i have to look forward to is menopause and a dry vagina.
Big Kahuna, I JUST NOW realized that your avatar was Vincent Mouse and Mia Duck doin’ the twist at … lemme guess, Bugsbunny Slim’s.
That’s pretty fucking awesome.

It’s not necessarily the mid 30’s so much as that is about the age most people are when they reach a decade of serious training. Having developed a robust physicality and the confident inclination to push limits.

Ha, yeah it’s an artist’s recreation of the events using Disney Cartoon characters, as far as I know there’s another one out there with Goofy dressed up as Steve Buscemi’s Buddy Holly waiter character (that’s one in particular that I really admire, how Buscemi’s Mr Pink goes on the whole waitress tipping tirade in Reservoir Dogs only to be recast in Pulp Fiction as the waiter, it’s charming.) and a couple other characters dressed as Monroe and Van Doren and such.
Surprised it took you so long honestly, must be one of those genius kerfuffles. You know, like when Einstein can’t do basic math or pour milk into his cereal properly but he can rattle off complex theories and pseudo-physic formulations concerning chemical experiments.

I think I am a little ahead of schedule on the injuries piling up. My knees feel like they have taken enough of a beating for 2 lifetimes.

This thread has taken a turn from the OP. I like it better this way.

Aren’t you mid thirties?
Wait until you hit fifty. All the injuries I had before forty were crash induced.

I am 36 and already have arthritis in my knees and back (weights and weight). I can only imagine how it will be in 15 years.
Testy were you a crash test dummy or something? Car Crashes?

I empathize with those types of crashes. Me being 6’5" and 300 lbs when you hit the ground you hit it hard and it hurts. I gave up bikes, and skiing a long time ago. Running still hurts my hips and knees.
See what you have to look forward to, csuli, beside the mythical “old man strength”? You will be able to sit around bitching about your various aches and pains with all the other geezers.

No, you are mistaken. Verkhohansky’s book was about rusty kettlebells, pickle juice and vodka. Close, but not precisely the same thing.
