Want To Stay Young? Stop Doing This:

Watching young people at the gym performing joint-killing moves like this - that somehow they believe are beneficial - is bad enough, but seeing out-of-shape older people doing shit like this is beyond all.

In this 30-second video we see two age-accelerating things going on.

First, setting up a momentum cycle has the opposite effect than what is intended. The idea is to increasingly challenge your muscles, not to lessen the challenge by embracing momentum. Anybody who knows what they are doing also knows that you do not if you’re using momentum.

Second, this wild ride is fucking up your joints. Your response might be to scoff because, hey, you feel fine! You will only realize it once the damage is done, and then it will be too late. There is no repairing joint damage.
