Gen X is no longer young: A thread on aging

Me too, but not from landscaping. I’ve been exercising since (I guess) the pandemic started and, until this summer, I’ve regularly stuck with it. (Yeah I went on about it, back when:)

2 or 3 times a week I’d do calisthenics, like the stuff they’d make us do in gym class (except now with no shouted threats of corporal punishment). Though lately it’s been once a week, at best.

If I use the specific metric of being able to touch one’s toes, then I’m in better shape than ever, because I was never able to do that until the same time that AARP showed up in the mailbox (see above).
