Do you have body aches and pains?
Nothing too serious - but just general acheyness ( and grumpyness  ) 
Knees, lower back, shoulders, feet?
I am on my feet around 10hrs a day and I cycle commute to work, well It's around 15 mins 
I'm overweight as well which doesn't help
Is it just me? |

It's nothing to worry about as it's basic wear and tear...the lower back knees and shoulders will always give you a bit grief but just wear and tear...even the most fittest and flexible have this problem....you have to remember we've been.lumping our body about for 40 years...don't worry xx |

Hi S.
Might they aches and pains have something to do with warm ups and downs around your cycling? Maybe try a padded saddle extra insulation around your joints while you ride And then stretch off at the end of each journey.
My number one health kick is regular chiropractic check ups and adjustments.
Best wishes |

 : It's true,Haha before I used to refer to my knees as my left & right knee,now it's my good or bad knee.Definitely the grumpiness is that our tolerance for bull crap is dramatically reduced  |

I turn 50 at the end of this month, and so far, so good! I like to keep myself in good shape, working out at home not a gym, and the only aches and pains I suffer are from altering my exercise plan  |

my ankles are stiff in the mornings and I have pain from surgery on my spine but unless I've pushed myself really hard swimming or walked a long way I'm usually ok.
Have you got any sort of arthritis or anything like that? |

I've had lower back problems for over 20 years but sadly never been believed, and think I was given fake medication at one point.
It's only in the last say 8 years that has changed but still not been offered an extensive exploration but then I think I have a high pain threshold and just get on with things, though I do think my patience is now wearing thin as even with daily pain killers I still have constant pain and even if I could have a total pain free day just one day a week I would be truly grateful |

Slightly achey right knee on stairs, trapped nerve in my left shoulder, feet ache after a long walk... All since being in my 40s.
I chafed my scrotum the other day, though that was more filth than age |

I can honestly say my knees have never hurt. I messed up my lower back lifting tons of horse feed and hay bales for 50 years, and I injured my hip in an OTT total body class I think, so I need to sleep on the right memory foam now to wake up pain free from those two! |

I just think its down to our genes, if we're lucky or not to get stiff joints etc etc. I keep myself fit and train regularly 3 times a week. Luckily i do yoga on top of my training, which helps massively to prevent other body problems. |

I had a bad stroke last year and had to learn to walk again. I consider myself to be very lucky to still be here. The best thing is to leave your phones and laptops alone more often and go out and exercise!! There lies the main ache and pain problem, too much time fiddling about with teccy stuff!

I'm 56 ya know young lady...
Seriously though, I suffer from psioratic arthritis which ain't gonna get better anytime soon. Inflammation of the joints due to crystals forming around them at times renders me about as much use as a one legged man in an arse kicking contest 
It's not bad though, as I can at least be mobile most of the time, but some days it takes me about 10 minutes to put a sock on |

Not unless I’ve been to the gym and have a bit of DOMS or after a long drive and my back can feel a bit stiff. Thankfully my joints and bones are all functioning well at the moment |

Nearly 53yrs old and to be honest I'm always grumpy
Aching is only self inflicted,I'm lucky enough not to suffer with joint pains etc.
NEVER in my life 'warmed up or down' lol and would advise people over 30 NEVER to run or jog - not only do most I see run along the side of a road WTF???? pollution negates any befenfits!!!
Running/jogging also promotes saggy breasts,arse and face :o
Short sprints are the way to go and as for cardio - train with free weights and only 30secs rest 20 sets per bodypart MINIMUM....train hard and fast.
To burn fat if that's part of what you seek then during exercise you MUST have your heart rate above 120 for at least 20mins
Life long exercise and healthy CLEAN diet - no drugs ie caffeine,anabolic steroids,medications and the hard stuff - marijuana is NOT a drug it's an herb despite what the so called experts say
I will add on that Anabolic steroids are perfectly safe IF used correctly BUT I wouldn't advise their use unless naturally low test levels OR if you are a bodybuilder/athlete over 60/65yrs...under a Dr's NOT GP - fucking jokes - supervision |

No - I don't think I'm unwell - I just eat and drink too much 
Long days of running around like a lunatic doesn't help either.
I need a sitting down job |

You’re not wrong OP, I’ve just come out of a PT session and I literally couldn’t walk properly down the stairs, all bow legged like John Wayne and now I can’t even stagger up the stairs here at home again to have a shower. Fuck this getting old business, I remember when I was young and supple! |

Definitely not just you OP.
As others have said, as you get older the body just doesn't work so well. I need more recovery time and do get more general achiness.
I also need more sleep than when I was younger. Whoever said you need less sleep as you get older was wrong
I've changed my exercise routine, to make sure I have a day off for recovery between sessions, that seems to have helped.

Sitting down jobs aren't all they're cracked up to be 
I asked because hypothyroidism feels a bit like you describe, especially the aching all over. |

Tried to reply to the op Maryfuckingpoppins in forum but my comment came out posted in the middle of their question. I suggested Blackseed oil (google it) it cures many things. I swear by it.

"sulforaphane..i eat broccoli sprouts for it and i supplement now for the perimenopause..joints used to ache, but now they don't.."
I just had a quick look at sulforaphane- it's worth a go I think.
Thanks for that
I'll also look into the black seed oil.
I have flat feet so I'm sure most of my aches in my feet, knees and lower back is because of them
I was born with stupid feet - but haven't really felt this achey till fairly recently

get some arches, apparently 30 mins of weight bearing exercise and start researching natural stuff to support your body in a preventative way..i was skeptical about the sprouts but im not now.. podcast joe rogan experience with dr rhonda patrick..search for the one she talks alot about it x you are welcome its not something people often talk about..its the brain fog that gets me..sorted with iodine and probiotics (for me) |
