I wouldn't call the latter a "fix". More like avoiding the problem. Let's pretend for as second the actual problem was some sort of muscular tightness you've developed, wouldn't the preferable fix be to identify the tightness, do some exercises regularly that alleviate it, and conserve the original function of your body? Otherwise seems like you're just slowly abandoning capabilities that your body used to have.
- gerdesj 5y agoI'm a bloke what is going from 0 to n years old where n is hopefully undefined and roughly "later". I'm currently 51. When I was a child/teen/young adult I had a habit of basically twisting myself in such a way that I stored energy and then released it to turn over - perhaps a bit like a rubber band being twisted. That's fine in a young body but not in an older one. Bear in mind that the same person (mind) is within both the young and old body and it took quite a lot of time to realise that I'm not as agile as I was. I'm a lot more cunning these days and for example can actually ski far better than I used to as a child but if I fall, it bloody hurts! Funnily enough the wallet thing is way more important to my wellbeing.

- awhitby 5y ago"Slowly abandoning capabilities that your body used to have" is inevitable. Everyone will do this at a different rate and on a different time profile, but everyone will do it, and everyone will eventually reach capability = zero.
