Good God is this ever true. I went many years without stretching and noticed a much higher probability I’d make a random muscle in my back or leg upset by doing something it wasn’t ready for.
Heavy lifts are one thing… Bending forward and back while painting a wall causing a back muscle to freak out was entirely unexpected and a wake up call for me to stretch every day. I still can’t touch my toes, but I’m getting there.
Lift. Heavy. Things. And Train. Your. VO2 Max. Eat. Fibre.
And stretch! Use it or lose it applies to range of motion too.

I can still chew my toenails off at 40! Apparently that’s good.

I don’t think putting your feet into your mouth is good at any age.
Jealous? 😜
