People say that when you get older, it’s harder to stay in shape because your body changes. Your metabolism drops and your energy drops.
I don’t think that’s true because my energy levels do not drop. I’m able to contain my energy more, but it’s definitely always there.
In the past, I was like a bowling all on a tight rope – a lot of potential energy that can be released at any moment.
Nowadays, I’m more like a car at the top of a hill – it can roll down the hill whenever and however fast the driver wants.
However, it is, in fact, harder to stay on shape, but that’s because this summer I have had to take a week or two off here and there because I get hurt easier.
It sucks.
So now I just have to be more careful and not be oblivious to my body when it tells me to pay attention to something.
Luckily, I still heal about as fast as Wolverine, and I don’t get sick after my surgery in January.
