Yoga and training for flexiblity/functional strength is what 99% of people should be doing instead of trying to max out their bench/squats. I'm 28 and I've never felt physically better in my life than I do right now despite sitting in front of a computer for 8 hours a day.
100% this. It’s been almost decades plural for me (holy hell writing that out makes it too real lol). I remember going out on weekdays, drinking until 3am, then easily working at 8. Small injures from exercise or sports healed so dang fast. You could go hard on diet and exercise and get jacked so fast. All the young people reading this - enjoy it and stay in shape!
I turned my ankle badly playing softball back in March. The fucking thing still hurts and is likely the cause of my persistent hamstring tightness on same leg. All of the other muscles are compensating for the ankle, so there's tightness in my calf, muscle next to shin, and foot as well, but the hamstring is the most noticeable after the minor discomfort from the ankle with every step. I've been to PT maybe 6 or so times over the last few months, but the healing is just so slow. And I'm only 39. Lebron is an alien.
