I have entertained this idea. I still feel like a 20 something, but Iām undoubtedly not. We should be told all about what 6o expect with advancing age at high school. At least we have the option of opting out if we donāt like what we hear!
Thatās a harrowing story, HighKick. Do you think itās an even worse experience because of the heights you were once at? I used to hate being below average looking, but when I look at my once good looking friends, struggling with their loss of looks and in particular becoming invisible to their preferred sex, I realise that I was actually blessed as I had my early life to be relatively invisible to women and it provided the impetus to develop a charming personality (

) whereas my good looking friends are all dull as ditchwater! Thank goodness for sapiosexual women!
Ah, the dreaded 50sā¦
Awfulā¦just awful
Itās an awful clichĆ©, but the accident forced you develop effective coping mechanisms.
Damn those itis brothers!

I feel good after taking ibuprofen as I am today.
I didnāt sign up for this

Gimme Ibuprofen!
Thatād be referred to as āmeditative absorptionāā¦when your actions are all-absorbing of mental processinā¦.you become lost in whatever youāre doing.
Yes I read about creatineās positive cognitive effects. Itās cheap so Iāll keep taking it.
I was very flexible having had to work at it, so my current lack thereof is saddening (see above about good looks). Having said that, I can sit in half lotus,
just about grasp my ankles bending forward, relax indefinitely in the Asian squat and get about 30-40cm from the floor in box splits. Itās only when I witness others of my age or indeed younger attempting and failing to mimic me that I realise Iām not too inflexible.
I think thatās exactly does happen with repeated stretching.
Slow breathing and
easing into the stretch?
A nice observationā¦.
