Took the words out of my mouth. I'm a huge combat sports fan and people call me old for being in my late 20s. But I see dudes in their 30s killing it in these sports so I can't take it seriously.

I was having horrible ankle and knee pain. People just kept acting like it was just normal arthritis because I'm closing in on 30. I started going to the gym and have no issues with either anymore besides my right knee popping more than when I was younger. Most people wouldnt go to the gym because of their pain. I couldn't accept how bad I let my health get. I always knew it was my choices of fast food, hard drugs and sedentary lifestyle that was hurting me. When I made lifestyle changes I'm way more athletic and pain free than I was earlier in my 20s.

    Wait till you find out that they're all hooked on opioids.

    You're in your 20s dude, you might not want to be so confident about how your body is going to feel in 10-15 years. Especially if you're doing combat sports.
