Lemmings over 30 who try to stay active, what are you doing to accommodate for your incredibly decrepit bodies to avoid boo-boos? (lemmy.world)

I'm half joking. But as a 30-something who used to be very active, I recognize I'm over the hill and my joints sound like pop rocks

Rowing and swimming (in a pool, not because the boat capsized). Both are non weight bearing, easy on the joints. Rowing is excellent for your core.

    I cannot stress to people how much rowing is actually enjoyable as someone who doesn’t want to “make time” for working out. It’s so relaxing.

    Not how I row lol. I'm trying to get the maximum workout in minimal time. I used to put on nature documentaries and go for longer, slower rows but with a kid I need to be done as quickly as possible.
