I just hope im still skating ledges and shit at 34. People wanna talk all that shit, but wait till you hit 25+ and your knees barely work unless you push through the bullshit and warm up for 2 hours, then see if you wanna try to film that back 5050 on the hubba
The first time I grinded a ledge was at age 24. I learned most of my tricks between 25-28. My first real skate trip was in my 30s. I’m 34 now and still progressing.
Just do mad yoga, spend time in saunas, get a lot of intense aerobic Exercise (muay Thai and bjj work for me but I’m sure HIIT and cross fit work fine too) and you will be fine.
If you look after yourself, as in eat right, take time to recover, and do complimentary exercise to stay strong you should be fine. I don' understand how people burn out around 30. Let alone before 30.
the western lifestyle is pretty sedentary, we sit way too much and dont move enough. the WHO recommendation is no less than 150 minutes of workout with every block of exersize should be more that 15 mins, and thats the minimum. people dont move enough and the body needs it, the more you move the better. ive had patients that were 70+ that were still doing daily workout that will annihilate some of my 30yo friends.
use it or lose it. if you keep skating, keeping alcohol and smoking to a minimum, sleep well andgive your body time to recover youll be skating deep into your 30s easily.
im 31 and skate intense sessions atleast twice a week and up to 5 times a week and im still learning tricks. i have a lot less stamina now but its not because of my age, its because of my shitty habits.
25 is young as fuck, with a few months of training and eating well youll feel like a 25 yo should in no time, its still early in life to hav chronic illness and pain
