At soon to be 43, I find it harder and harder to get going in the mornings. Aches and pains mainly and two herniated discs don't help either. My discs have been herniated for about 8 - 9 years and really cause me trouble when the weather is not good.
It seems like the last 3 - 4 years have been overly difficult as far as pain. I never would have guessed I would hurt this bad at 40 years old. So, 40 years old for me is my vote for the downhill slide.
I have to admit that my best lifts and my best running time was when I was 30....Now I am in my mids 30s, still in good shape though......but I will say that my fitness peak was when I was 30 year old.......
I`ll be 36 in <a month. I`ve had very little problems so far until last year when I started getting 4-6 hours sleep because of my 2 year old. My body is`nt the same anymore. I`m planning on overcoming that though. I was VERY close to just quitting the whole lifting weights thing many times in the past year.
I still feel I have`nt hit my peak yet. Until I get that, I won`t be satisfied. Even when I stop weights, I`ll do some type of exercise like running or cardio of some kind, at least.
It sucks to be out of shape and I plan on never being that way. Plus fucking is so much better.
Somehow I don't think you hit a peak - it think perhaps you pass through a time in life were fitness and good health comes easier or with less hard work.
It's all downhill once you refer to your woman as a "partner".
It's all downhill once you and your "partner" have matching jumpsuits.
It's all downhill once you plan sex in your agenda.
It's all downhill once they cut the umbilical.
It's all downhill once you pick up gardening.
It's all downhill once you've had a rough threesome with two hot women with all of you on cocaine, Viagra and XTC and doing anal.
It's all downhill once you have jerked off after putting on women's underwear, nearly choking yourself to death, and looking at babypictures of your father.
